An appreciative crowd enjoyed a warming cuppa and were amazed by the added surprise of a solar powered water pump which propelled harvested rainwater up the middle of this giant sculpture only to cascade over the top creating a silvery veil of its own. The sun shone just long enough to provide the power.

Thanks to Patrick Goodall and his assistants and to all who came to help set up this event, serve teas and clear away. We had the chance to invite all our volunteers, facilitators and sponsors past and present to a drinks reception where we enjoyed a glass of British sparkling wine. Thanks to Jo and his team at the Reindeer Pub and Kitchen for their friendly service and delicious canapés.

The sculpture has been funded by The Greater Norfolk Development Partnership, Norfolk County Council’s The Arts Project Fund and Norwich City Council’s Small Community Grants.
