This summer, North Lincolnshire Museums invites you to take part in Horsing Around – A Sculpture Trail Around North Lincolnshire. Part of North Lincolnshire Museums programme to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the birth of George Stubbs. The trail has seen 20 horse sculptures ride into our area. 10 life size horse have trotted up in North Lincolnshire, including in our parks and outside our historic buildings. A further 10 miniature horses galloped to Normanby Hall Country Park for you to find.
Every horse has been lovingly decorated by an artist. Each artist has worked with a school or community group to bring their horse to life!
This project is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, with additional funding from Arts Council England through the Humber Museums Partnership. The UK Shared Prosperity Fund aims to improve pride in place and increase life chances across the UK investing in communities and place, supporting local business, and people and skills.
