A group of Great Yarmouth students have been taking part in an exciting new art project with Time & Tide Museum in conjunction with the Holding Back the Tide project. 
The young people involved in the project have created artworks inspired by the coastal environment around the town. These were placed in sealed eco-friendly bamboo ‘bottles’ and launched by students on an outgoing tide on a stormy December the 1st. It is hoped that these “messages in a bottle” will travel along the East Coast and across the sea to Europe. People who find them will be invited to let staff at Time & Tide know where they were found and to send in their own artworks inspired by the coastal environments where they live.
The project is co-ordinated by Mark Wood from Great Yarmouth College as part of his work with the CCYY art teachers & students network. This group organises collaborative projects with students from Great Yarmouth College, Great Yarmouth High School, Cliff Park High School, Oriel high School & Caister High School.
