In this section, you can find artwork and creative responses which have been inspired by memories of Grimsby Docks. Have a look at the work of Sue Stone, who has captured her memories of Grimsby Docks in artwork and fondly remembers the time visiting the docks with her father and drinking ‘a mug of ship’s tea’. Here you can also find other creative responses from the project including photographs from a movement workshop held by Soul Roberts with students from Grimsby Institute and artwork produced in a workshop led by Di Brookes.
