Join us in Cleethorpes 12th to 15th June 2025
Look out for the big black tent!
East Marsh United are proud to be part of Sea Like a Mirror – an ambitious national partnership programme, commissioned to mark the 200th anniversary of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), it is inspired by the profound legacy of their life-saving work and the special status its volunteer crews occupy in the collective consciousness of our island nation.
At the heart of the programme, is a newly commissioned artwork, White Horses, by Ivan Morison, from the collaborative practice of Heather Peak and Ivan Morison.
This travelling work, housed within a unique, custom-made sculptural tent will be installed on Cleethorpes seafront, immersing audiences in the stories of RNLI crew and local people from around our coastline. Within this structure, Ivan’s new work, White Horses, will be screened using 16mm projection and accompanied by a score written by composer Chris Hope.
