"Nature all around us"

A new community art project around Bitterne Station

Funded by SWR Customer and Communities Improvement Fund 2023/24 and led by Friends of Bitterne Station "Nature all around us" is a new project coming to our community.
It is delivered in partnership with Friends of Cobbett Road Library, Three Rivers Rail Partnership and Bitterne Manor Primary School. 

We will work with local artist Local artist Joanna Rose Tidey. Her outdoor paintings (that can be seen around Sholing) are vibrant and colourful reflecting her enthusiasm for wildlife and nature.
Over the next year, Joanna will create 10 art installations around our community.

​But which animals should we represent around our community?
To provide inspiration to Joanna for her drawing we are launching a community wildlife photo competition. 
Anyone can enter the photo competition, entering is simple but please respect these rules:
1) Each person can enter max 3 photos
2) The photo should represent local wildlife from in and around Southampton
(from insect in your garden, to birds on the river, from shy hedgehogs to local foxes).  
3) Please only submit original photos that you have taken recently (do not submit the work of others)
4) To submit your entry, download this form and email your photos

We will work with children at Bitterne Manor Primary to select 10 photos and 10 animals to represent our 'Nature all around us' . The authors of the final selected photos will be acknowledged in our webpages and will each receive as prize an A3 art print by Joanna Rose Tidey to keep. 



We will send updates as the project progresses.
