One of the more unusual celebrations of Doctor Who has been launched.
In a public art event that will bound across the region for 10 weeks in the summer of 2022, Winchester and Southampton will be brought to life with a drove of Hares and their young Leverets sculptures, creating a free, fun, family-friendly trail of discovery for everyone to enjoy whilst exploring our great cities.
The one near Southampton Bargate celebrates Doctor Who and was created by Caroline Fairbairn. It has been signed by several Doctors. “In collaboration with the Murray Parish Trust we wanted to produce a Hampshire Hare that celebrated the phenomena that is Doctor Who. It will feature all the portraits of all the doctors on an astral nebula that swirls around the Hare. It is our aim to get as many of the amazing actors who have played Doctor Who to sign the sculpture before its final varnishing. There are very few British institutions that evoke such love across the all generations. I feel it will be a firm family favourite on the trail.”
