Art, Science and Environment on the Jurassic Coast - ShapeShift: landscape in motion
Visitors to Swanage this summer will
have the opportunity to view an innovative temporary sculpture at Durlston Castle. This groundbreaking project
combines the skills of artists and scientists working together to consider the
world-class landscape of the Jurassic
Coast.
In December 2006 the Durlston
Castle Project was earmarked £3.27
million by the Heritage Lottery Fund to help restore the Castle as the natural
focus for visitors to Durlston Country Park
near Swanage and the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast
World Heritage Site. However, a further £1 million is needed to secure
other major funding which has so far provided backing for this high profile
project. This money must be found before the other major funders can be
confirmed.
There has been international interest in the achievements of Creative Coast 2012, the latest Jurassic Coast Arts Programme project, which is drawing to a close in May 2013.The final part of this project was the production of a publication that sets out case studies and lessons learned from five years of linking the Arts with England's only Natural World Heritage Site.
Following the landslide at St. Oswald's Bay between Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door on the morning of 30 April 2013, diversionary routes have been put in place by Dorset County Council and the Lulworth Estate, allowing the South West Coast Path to remain fully open and safe for visitors to this area.
There are many ways in which you can play a part in supporting the Jurassic Coast, helping to ensure that it remains part of our global heritage for now and for future generations.
