In Sunderland city centre start in the Winter Gardens with the meditative hum of tropically planted music machines. See the earth’s orbit around the sun at Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art; celebrate the extinction of the incandescent light bulb at the Pilgrim Pub; hear the sculptural sounds of wind turbines at The Place; and see the true colour of the North East sky. Then hop on our free mini-bus for a speedy tour to see films of dramatic jumps at Reg Vardy Gallery and about the industry of glassmaking at National Glass Centre.
