This Coastal Town

For adults of all ages. If you are a resident, worker, regular visitor, or if you just love Newhaven, this is for you! Join Hospitable Environment, Ruth Catlow Furtherfield (artist) and Ann Light, (researcher) for a fun morning with your friends and neighbours, time-travelling into the future of this coastal town.

Please note that the event is being included in a research project on the effect of immersive experiences. A researcher will be there to observe the event. Although the researcher will not be observing individuals, there is an opportunity on the day for you to decide if you wish to be part of the research or not. If you would like to know more about the research project before the event, please email Professor Ann Light at the University of Sussex (ann.light@sussex.ac.uk) and she will send you an information sheet.

 We start by adding events of historic or personal significance to a timeline of Newhaven since 1875.

You choose your time-travelling characters. Will you start as a young person, or an elder? What does your character care about?

Then we will travel all the way to 2075, 50 years into the future!
