Many of us have our own special, individual trees or beloved woodlands. Drawing on many sources and media, this workshop will explore our personal and creative relationships with trees. Starting with traditional stories, we'll take time to talk, to share our own stories, to listen and draw and write and grow those individual tree stories into a communal, ceremonial forestWorkshop leader: Gordon MacLellan is a storyteller, poet, artist and puppeteer.
