Remember Nature 2025 @remembernaturemetzger @castlefieldgall Join us in standing up for nature on 4 November 2025! In 2015 artist Gustav Metzger called on art schools and students of all disciplines to “Remember Nature” and “make a stand against the ongoing erasure of species”. Tuesday 4 November 2025 marks a decade since that call, and partners across England are coming together, bringing ethics into aesthetics, for Remember Nature 2025. Day of Action Nature Remembered Walk Led by artist Yu-Chen Wang Tues 4 Nov 2025 12:30pm – 3:00pm Across Manchester city centre and Hulme 12:30pm meet at @mcrartgallery Derek Jarman Pocket Park We will explore Manchester’s ever-changing landscape: the natural environment, layers of histories, and the legacy of industry – all deeply intertwined. Together, attendees will seek to discover these interconnections, to gather stories, share reflections, and spark ideas. Nature Remembered Gathering Tues 4 Nov 2025 3:00 – 5:00pm Hulme Community Garden Centre Explore the garden centre whilst experiencing a programme of activities brought together to inspire and enable ideas and skills sharing. A range of cultural and community groups and their representatives, will join the gathering @venturearts_ @unityradiofm / Manchester Hip-Hop Archive @mumsforlungs @_grassroutes_ @ethicalconsumer @rspb @your.home.better @manmetuni Save Ryebank Fields/Ryebank Fields Community Creative producer @msjanelawson @helenwewiora #RNGM25 Remember Nature has been kindly supported by Arts Council England, Teiger Foundation, Hauser & Wirth, University for the Creative Arts at Farnham. @aceagrams @teigerfoundation @hauserwirth @unicreativearts Co-curators: @andreagregsonsculpture @libraryoflight
