About this Event
"Rough Magic" fireside story telling for adults to celebrate the Summer Solstice
Come join storyteller Bernadette Russell at Lesnes Abbey Lodge for a magical evening of fireside storytelling and celebrations of the Summer Solstice for adults. Let the flickering flames and enchanting stories transport you to the Otherworld. Come gather with us and celebrate the magic of the season.
"I'll be telling old stories about abundance and celebration, alchemy and transformation, rebellion and resistance around a roaring fire amongst the ancient trees of this beautiful wood. There'll be lots of time to chat, opportunities to join in with the story if you'd like to (with no obligation to do so!), and we'll co-create a shrine to the season, and celebrate the abundance of summer! - you'll leave revvied and enchanted by the woods and their more than human inhabitants. It'll be mysterious. fun and friendly!"
Meet me at the Chesnut Kiosk at 6.30pm (18.30) and we will walk down together to The Clearing (Lesnes outdoor learning space) where a roaring fire will be there to welcome you, ready to start with stories at 7pm (19. 00)
