During the first year’s delivery of This Girl Codes (2020), our Curiosity Boxes supported teachers and children of key workers during lockdown, and Atomic Poems engaged people in local heritage – celebrating the work of 17th century writer and scientist Margaret Cavendish – through remote online workshops creating poetry through code. After the workshop, lead artist Cora Glasser created a temporary installation at Bolsover Castle, working with our heritage partner English Heritage. You can also view the Atomic Poems Book here.
