Our long-standing partners, Right Up Our Street, have invited the XP community to experience this year’s Doncaster Festival of Light.
The central installation, Boris Acket’s A Bird of a Thousand Voices, is a stunning example of Craftsmanship and Quality. Inspired by Da Vinci’s early sketches of a dream machine to make humankind fly, the kinetic sculpture uses natural phenomena like wind, water, and gravity. It is a brilliant, real-world connection to our Protecting Our Planet curriculum seam, challenging us to look up, out, and imagine what is possible when we dare to dream.
