IT’S TIME TO HOP, SKIP AND JUMP INTO AN ART ADVENTURE!
Hip, hip, hooray, Peter Rabbit™: Tales on the Tyne is here! We’re hopping with excitement that you’re joining the adventure.
The streets, parks and public spaces of Newcastle and North Tyneside have been transformed into an outdoor gallery from, now until Monday 14th September. Keep your eyes peeled as you explore – you never know where a Peter Rabbit might be hiding!
Peter Rabbit™: Tales on the Tyne is brought to you by St Oswald’s Hospice and is raising vital funds to support local children and adults. Working in partnership with Wild in Art, The World of Peter Rabbit™ and Headline Partners Newcastle City Council, this free, family-friendly art adventure is ready for you to discover.
Newcastle and North Tyneside have been sprinkled with creativity thanks to the arrival of 96 super-sized Peter Rabbit sculptures, each one inspired by the much-loved character created by Beatrix Potter. Following the success of previous trails including Great North Snowdogs, Elmer’s Great North Parade and Shaun on the Tyne, this year’s trail is extra special as it celebrates 40 years of St Oswald’s Hospice and 160 years since the birth of Beatrix Potter.
Each large sculpture has been uniquely designed by talented artists from the region and beyond. You’ll also discover adorable ‘Little Peter Rabbit™’ sculptures, lovingly created by local schools and community groups – can you find them all?
Peter Rabbit™: Tales on the Tyne is the perfect summer holiday activity, free for all and packed full of outdoor adventure. And by getting involved, you’ll be showing your support to the patients and families who rely on the care of St Oswald’s Hospice.
Everything you need to get the most from your art trail adventure
Every explorer needs a map and we have two great options for you!
From the look of our week 6 ‘Top of the Hops’ app stats, you`ve all been very busy indeed!
Don`t worry if there are still a few left for you to discover. The trail is running until Monday 14 September, so there`s still plenty of time to complete Tales on the Tyne and receive your certificate and finisher sticker. 🏅🐇
And there`s no need to rush! Our Farewell Weekend takes place on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 October at Newcastle Civic Centre, giving you the perfect hop-portunity to find any final members of the fluffle you may have missed. 👀
All 43 large and 53 small sculptures will be gathered in one place, alongside plenty of family-friendly activities, stalls, and surprises. It`s your chance to see the entire trail together one last time before their fond their forever homes at auction, or are returned to the schools and groups who created them. 💙

Our lovely Tyne-tastic Peter has had to hop away from his usual spot on Newcastle Quayside, for some essential repairs. He’s safe and sound and being well looked after.
His app code is still displayed on the plinth so can be collected if you visit. We hope to return him to the trail soon.

Tales on the Tyne has been brought to you by the team at @stoswaldsuk, and all funds raised through the trail will support their work with local adults, children and families. If you have bought a sticker book or merchandise, downloaded our app, or made a donation, you have made a difference to local hospice care. Thank you. 💙
Care at St Oswald’s Hospice is always free for those who need it. However, it currently costs around £12 million each year to provide the wide range of services the hospice offers. Around half of this amount must be raised through charitable donations, meaning every single contribution from the community makes a real difference.

In celebration of St Oswald’s Hospice’s 40th birthday, anyone setting up a monthly donation this year will receive a special ruby red pin badge, as modelled here by some of Peter Rabbit’s friends!

A special message hopped into our inbox this week and brought a very big smile to our faces! 💙
After being inspired by the Peter Rabbit™: Tales on the Tyne trail, Faye created this hop-tastic @officialpeterrabbit sand sculpture at @our.whitley.bay`s Whitley Bay Sandcastle Competition. 🐰🏖️
Using shells to create Peter`s iconic blue jacket and topping it off with a carrot, we think she`s done an amazing job bringing our mischievous bunny friend to life in the sand! 👏
A huge thank you to Faye and her family for sharing these lovely photos with us. We hope you love her sandy Peter Rabbit as much as we do! 💙
Have you got any trail photos, memories or Peter Rabbit-inspired creations of your own?
