East Durham Artists' Network (EDAN) is a voluntary group of East Durham professional and amateur artists working in a wide variety of media, operating from our gallery in Seaham, at the bottom of Church Street.
Artist Spotlight
Jac Seery Howard
Jac’s mixed-media works currently tell the story of the Durham coast. With a strong narrative she expresses its mood and atmosphere, remembers its industrial past and hints at its deeper geological journey, often collaging with, or printing from beach scavenged scraps to help tell the story of what happened here.

Artists' Exhibits
As part of the "Stronger Seams: Beyond Coal" exhibition, EDAN in collaboration with the Durham Energy Institute and Newcastle University is carrying out a survey on language and mining in East Durham, with plans to publish the findings online and in print form later in the year. We would love to read your personal reflections, observations and perceptions of the links between dialect and coal. Click here to take the survey (and feel free to forward to anyone you think would be interested). If you have any questions, please email Mike Pearce at michael.pearce@ncl.ac.uk.
