Fairytales and Folklore for Modern Times -A Creative Collaboration for 2027

Are you a creative living/ working in West Dorset?
As part of her Bardic Year, Nicki (the new Bard of Dorchester) is bringing together artists of all kinds in a collaborative project to see what happens when we get inspired by each other’s process. Maybe a poem will inspire a painting, maybe a story will create a dance, maybe it will all join together in something we haven’t thought of yet!
We’ll be exploring the theme of fairy tales and folklore for modern times, beginning with the question: “What happens when we switch the internet off? What needs remembering and passing on?”
Then we’ll see where the magic takes us.
So if you’re an experienced visual artist, writer, musician, storyteller / performer, dancer or cultural practitioner and you’d like to come on the journey, you’re welcome to come and get inspired, producing something together to exhibit next year.
We will be meeting once a month at the Jawbone Café: Bean on the Green, 8 Fordington Green, Dorchester DT1 1LU
The first gathering is on Thursday 19th November 7pm - 9pm
An open space for local creatives to gather, connect, and start weaving together the vision of what we can create in the months to come.
If you are interested, please add your details to our list so we cab email you with details, or message Jawbone and they'll pass on your info to Nicki: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/796055/202962132402177866/share
