His installation entitled The Hide\, and the project’s associated music\, are inspired by Hayden’s experience of bird watching – an opportunity for stillness and reflection\, which can be enjoyed in even the most unlikely of places. \n\n\n\nThe Newcastle-Gateshead Quayside is the perfect location for The Hide installation to inspire moments of wildness. For 60 years\, before The Glasshouse stood on the banks of the Tyne\, the famous Tyne Kittiwakes have brought their wild oceanic calls to the heart of the Quayside. These delicate gulls are truly pelagic in nature\, entwined with the ocean\, they spend their winters out on the open sea – rarely touching land. \n\n\n\nIn spring\, Kittiwake pairs return to nest on the Quayside’s iconic Tyne Bridge and surrounding buildings\, raising families amongst us on these urban cliff faces. Feeding exclusively on Sand Eels and fish caught in the North Sea\, Kittiwakes never feed from the hands of man. \n\n\n\nTheir distinctive “Kitt-wake” calls are an acoustic celebration of our journey to live alongside wildlife in the city\, the ever-changing Quayside a welcoming home and refuge for the world’s most inland colony of the red listed Black-legged Kittiwake. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nthe experience\n\nJoin us at The Glasshouse for An Evening with Hayden Thorpe and the Tyne Kittiwakes. This one-off experience of music and urban wildlife will begin with an introduction to The Hide and a special acoustic performance by Hayden\, followed by a Tyne Kittiwake safari with wildlife guides\, Wild Intrigue. Attendees will have the opportunity to visit and enjoy The Hide before and after the experience. \n\n\n\n18:00 – 19:00   Exclusive pre-event access to experience Hayden Thorpe’s installation\, The Hide\, at The Glasshouse. \n\n\n\n19:00 – 19:15  Introduction to The Hide and acoustic performance by Hayden Thorpe. \n\n\n\n19:15 – 20:00  Tyne Kittiwake Safari with Wild Intrigue. \n\n\n\n20:00 – 21:00  Return to The Glasshouse. Exclusive post-event access to The Hide. \n\n\n\nHayden Thorpe came to prominence as the lead singer and chief songwriter for the much-celebrated band Wild Beasts. Hayden has since released two solo albums. \n\n\n\nAs Artist in Residence with The Glasshouse International Centre for Music\, Hayden’s installation of The Hide will be available from 19th to 23rd June. The installation\, and associated music written for the project\, have been inspired by Hayden’s experience of bird watching in the tranquillity of Cumbria. \n\n\n\nDiscover more about Hayden’s inspiration for The Hide and visit his website. \n\n\n\nWild Intrigue is a social enterprise based in Newcastle-upon-Tyne\, creating experiences and projects to celebrate the wildlife\, people and landscapes of Northern England. \n\n\n\nAn active member of the Tyne Kittiwake Partnership\, Wild Intrigue has observed and shared the wonderful Tyne Kittiwakes for 10 years through experiences\, projects and an annual Tyne Kittiwake Week. \n\n\n\nTickets onto An Evening with Hayden Thorpe and the Tyne Kittiwakes contribute to conserving the Tyne Kittiwake colony through Wild Intrigue’s ongoing education and outreach. \n\n\n\nLimited tickets available.

Each spring these gulls return from wintering on the open ocean to nest on our urban cliff-faces of buildings\, bridges and lampposts\, and for a few months of the year\, the Newcastle-Gateshead Quayside transforms into a wild seabird Mecca.  \n\n\n\nJust as the tidal River Tyne has ebbed and flowed for generations\, the Kittiwake – a truly pelagic (sea) gull by nature – is a natural link to our coastal heritage in the North East.  \n\n\n\nUnlike their cousins\, such as Herring Gulls and Black-headed Gulls\, which have adapted to urban life and human food sources\, our Tyne Kittiwakes follow the Tyne out to the North Sea to feed each day on fish such as Sand Eels.  \n\n\n\nSo why\, for the past 60 years\, have the Tyne Kittiwakes ventured further inland – away from the oceanic food upon which they still feed? And how is the local community responding to sharing the Quayside with Kittiwakes each year? \n\n\n\nJoin Wild Intrigue\, members of the Tyne Kittiwake Partnership\, for a Tyne Kittiwake Safari around the Newcastle-Gateshead Quayside to immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of this urban seabird spectacle\, and to discuss the history and precarious future of this fascinating Red Listed species. \n\n\n\nThe profits from all of Wild Intrigue’s Kittiwake experiences go directly back to supporting the conservation of the colony\, helping to protect and celebrate our Geordie Kittiwakes into the future. \n\n\n\nThere are plenty of wild encounters to enjoy in northern England\, explore URL:https://www.wildintrigue.co.uk/event/tyne-kittiwake-safari-2/ LOCATION:BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art\, South Shore Road\, Gateshead\, Gateshead\, NE8 3BA\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Kittiwakes,Tyne Kittiwake Safari ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.wildintrigue.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Kittiwake.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230702T140000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230702T153000 DTSTAMP:20260416T221724 CREATED:20230622T093135Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230701T151610Z UID:1560000557-1688306400-1688311800@www.wildintrigue.co.uk SUMMARY:Make a Kittiwake DESCRIPTION:Take a Tyne Kittiwake home with you!\n\nIn celebration of Tyne Kittiwake Week\, we’re hosting two sessions to make your very own wooden hanging Tyne Kittiwake to take home!  \n\n\n\nThis activity is suitable for adults as well as kids (most suited to ages 7+)\, so come along to make your own Geordie Kittiwake\, and discover a few intriguing insights about our urban seafarers. \n\n\n\nWe supply everything you need to make a beautiful wooden\, flying Tyne Kittiwake\, a design shared with us by fellow Kittiwake friend\, Tormod\, from Biotope Architecture & Nature in Norway. \n\n\n\nThis is a free activity and open to all\, however spaces are limited so please book! \n\n\n\nTICKETS Please book one ticket per Kittiwake you intend to make.
