Folk Lorg

6 May - 13 June

Barra Badlands and Sorcha Elspeth look at how tattoos serve as our personal living archive. They have been visiting to forage and explore the collections to curate this exhibition that celebrates the plant life and objects that make up Stevenage's story. 

"Come and explore mark making or 'Folk Lorg' with us."

'Folk Lorg' pronounced LUR-ugh is a Gaelic word meaning seeking, discovery and also the act of tracing/mark making.
