A World of Good is an exhibition based around the work of pioneering 19th century environmentalist Charles Waterton, who built the world's first nature reserve - the title comes from one of his letters.
The exhibition is a multimedia experience of sculpture and sound, where visitors can explore and interact with issues that Waterton dealt with including pollution, hunting, deforestation, changing weather patterns and more.
The exhibition features paper sculptures by local artist Andy Singleton, which are then animated by local animator Charlotte Blacker.
