OUR CITY PARADE 2026
SCRIBBLE
As part of Hull City Council’s Our City Parade 2026, delivered by Back to Ours, we were commissioned for ‘SCRIBBLE’, a section of the parade celebrating the creativity of Hull’s youngest citizens
We scribbled with paint and paint pens, with 2-4yrs in our weekly creative play session PLAY HERD on giant bits of fabric. Then we took some of their scribbles and made them into giant 3D sculptures. These were attached to prams in the parade, and some hand held ones were interacted with by the babies and young children walking in the parade.
We made the original artworks on fabric into costumes, a banner and to dress our heritage silver cross pram. This pram led our parade, pushed by dancer Charlotte Hanson. The pram was a nod to the families of Hessle Road who would take part in Fish Dock Pram Races in the 1920s and 30s.
