Reckon you know what happened in the world of walking in the last 12 months?
Join our free end-of-the-year live online Quiz and test your skills against other artists, performers, writers and walkers.
Try to remember when lockdown rules were eased and we were able to go further afield for walks, in the northern hemisphere we endured the wettest summer on record and now the warmest autumn…. Some records were broken others were established. There was a lot of talk about the climate and as usual, little action.
Despite the pandemic restrictions, Made of Walking had scores of submissions, with parallel events taking place at various hubs.

On Cybernetic Capitalism
We welcome back Bob Parks. Bob was one of the pioneers of performance art in England in the 1960s, and on the US West Coast in the 1970s, and eventually has seen his practice evolve into a mixture of performance and walking art, subscribing to the idea that Walking Art is Performance Art on wheels, with the capacity to bring in the whole world's population.
