Emergency Exit Arts, in association with HOME Slough, Creative People and Places and Creative Junction brought astronomical discovery into the centre of Slough.

People had a chance to glimpse the universe through our telescope earlier in the day and find out if they were a scientist! Then following UV and Infra-Red, we journeyed and discovered our Star Man, as well as Mr and Mrs Herschel. In our finale, we saw a new planet rise into the sky, surrounded by comets and all the stars in the Milky Way!

We worked with local groups to create dance performances and beautiful lanterns which lit up the procession through the town centre. A total of 300 people joined us in our workshops, and 600 became a part of our voyage of discovery into the stars!
