The publication of the report ‘Art as a tool in support of the
understanding of coastal change in East Anglia’ by Dr Robin McInnes
OBE and Hope Stubbings sponsored by The Crown Estate created an
opportunity to explore the role of artists and art along the
Suffolk coast.
Working

series of events and workshops were developed under the themes
