With The Nicholson Museum & Gallery in Leek closed for refurbishment, its most curious resident – a wallaby once found roaming the wild moors – has inspired this new outdoor adventure.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Peak Wildlife Park, a mob of colourful, quirky wallaby sculptures has hopped into towns, villages and beauty spots across the Staffordshire Moorlands.

  • Painted and illustrated by local artists *
  • Co-designed with community groups *
  • Free outdoor adventure
  • Fun for all ages

In partnership with Peak Wildlife Park, Wild in Art (Creating Public Art Trails including Shaun The Sheep at Trentham and The Manchester Bees In the City) and OUTSIDE, it’s set to be spectacular summer trail!

* We’ve commissioned 10 Artists to work with 10 Community Groups to co-design amazing sculptures:
