Quaker Arts Network
Quaker Arts Network had a gazebo in the Orchard, where they offered a variety of games, craft and word activities. The resident poetry doctor prescribed suitable poems for a range of emotional ailment and guests played games of all-black chess until they forgot whose pieces were which.
In the Loving Earth Project exhibition in the Studio, Linda Murgatroyd ran workshops. This community arts project serves to lovingly draw attention to the climate crisis, inviting each of us to imagine and share what we might do to make a difference.
