Gaia

Monday 10 July 2023 - Sunday 10 September 2023

This summer see our home planet in a way you've never seen it before, as Luke Jerram’s giant illuminated Earth hangs over the grass in the Cloister Garth.

From Monday 10 July to Sunday 10 September, this seven-metre diameter Earth installation will be floating in three-dimensions in the iconic cathedral setting.

Following Museum of the Moon, Luke Jerram's famous touring artwork, Gaia, gives us the opportunity to see our home from a new angle and reflect on the importance of caring for nature.

A programme of events will be announced over the coming months so look out for out-of-this-world activities including late night openings, tours with a twist and family activities.
