The natural spectacle of Brimham Rocks, with its giant rock formations, was created by an immense river 100 million years before the first dinosaurs walked the earth, and a visit to this amazing landscape is truly a journey into pre-history.
The rocks, sculpted by 320 million years of movement of entire continents as well as hundreds of thousands of years of ice, rain and wind, have taken on weird and wonderful shapes and with a little imagination, they resemble familiar creatures. Visitors are free to explore the site, spotting the Dancing Bear, the Gorilla, the Eagle and the Turtle, whilst the more nimble can crawl through the Smartie Tube and balance on the Rocking Stones.

Watching 'Creating the Spectacle!' by Sue Austin, an installation for the 2012 Cultural Olympiad in the Clore Ballroom, Royal Festival Hall.
'Creating the Spectacle!' is a ground-breaking series of performances of an underwater wheelchair that leaves traces of its joy and freedom as it flies along through the water with its human occupant.
This surprising and unexpected juxtaposition is proving to be a powerful vehicle for transforming preconceptions about the wheelchair in the mind of the viewer as they then become part of the artwork too.
Conceived by Artistic Director Sue Austin and produced through Freewheeling, 'Creating the Spectacle!' aims to generate a widespread public debate about the nature and value of contemporary arts practice shaped by the experience of disability.

SAWDUST & SPECTACLE: UNDER THE BIG TOP IN SMALL TOWN AMERICA
February 4 - April 21, 2010
Sawdust & Spectacle shines a spotlight on the glory days of the traveling circus in the United States from the late 19th century through the 1930s, focusing on its popularity in Midwestern states such as Ohio. The exhibition features captivating imagery from Portsmouth native Clarence Carter and other major Ohio artists of the last century, as well as vintage circus posters and banners, toys, documentary photographs from the Ackerman Collection, the Carter Archives and other public and private Ohio collections, and an exquisite set of 13 circus dioramas by Sonny King, the son of a lion tamer. The various artworks and artifacts blend the grandiosity of the big top with the less-glamorous private lives of its performers.
