Brilliant day at #NAM @durhamuniversity.bsky.social working with a lovely team of creatives. A privilege to work with astronomers, artists and philosophers and facilitate activity exploring creativity. Attendees were so open and curious ⭐ @nheartlands.bsky.social

Enjoyed celebrating National Meadow Day 5 July @northpennines.bsky.social at Low Way Farm, Holwick. Lots of walks, talks, music, arts activity & films. Great to see ‘Creatively Connected’ artists Laura Harrington, Azadeh Fatehrad and Matt Denham there too! Learnt lots from lovely people there.

Great to hear more @northpennines.bsky.social at the annual conference yesterday. Insightful talks from farmers Jimmy, Paddy & Gemma exploring practice that helps increase nature recovery. Thanks to Charlie too for letting us see the great work going on in Baldersdale @nheartlands.bsky.social

Enjoying this short read ‘what art does - an unfinished theory’ Brian Eno & Bette A.
Full of insightful theory.
Lots to think about in terms of practice.

And an enlightening and insightful pre lunch tour from Eleanor @thebowesmuseum.bsky.social helping us explore the collection in new ways and uncover queer histories often untold.

I’ve been to 5 fabulous poetry events in the past 2 months & feel very lucky.
Today I was invited to A Happy Place project #CultivateCommission in Durham with @katefoxwriter75.bsky.social & writing group.
What an honour!
Powerful & moving poetry performances inspired by bio & neurodiversity 👏

It was a privilege to be invited to celebrate the new #LittleGreenGallery at Green Arts, Newton Aycliffe green-arts.co.uk Happy Birthday Green Arts. Well done to Laura & the team 🎉

It’s been a privilege to spend the evening listening to the great Bob Beagrie and the fabulous Poets at the Table Group at Arc Stockton (that included a poignant piece of poetry by my fabulous friend and creative David T 💛)

Been keeping cosy and warm with a bit of crafting this snowy Saturday and made some paper folded gift bags.

Hello Bluesky! 🌟
I work as part of a small arts team to celebrate creativity, arts and community in rural spaces. I’m new here at BlueSky and would love to connect with like-minded folk who also love the arts and all things creative.
