Spin-Bike Art with Daisy Arts

A reclaimed bicycle is transformed into an interactive art machine, inviting people of all ages to create vibrant, one-of-a-kind artworks simply by pedalling. Add paint, spin the paper and watch colourful patterns appear before your eyes. This hands-on activity combines physical movement, artistic expression and environmental awareness in a fun, accessible and memorable way. Whether you’re discovering spin art for the first time, exploring your creativity or enjoying a shared community activity, every spin creates a unique piece of art to take home.

Archaeology ‘Open Lab’

After the trowels are put down, the archaeological work continues in the post-excavation’ phase. This work involves looking in detail at all the objects we dug up. We weight, count, catalogue and describe everything that we found so that we can understand even more about how the Bishops’ Palace was used. Normally this work happens in laboratories behind closed doors, but we’ve decided to bring these objects back to Bishop Auckland and work public view here in our ‘open lab’.
