The Bingo Wings Project ONLINE is an intergenerational community project, presented by Fidget Feet Aerial Dance, the masters of aerial spectacle, in partnership with The Civic. It aims to bring together younger and older people through movement and bingo focusing on arts, health and wellbeing and community dialogue across generations.
