All welcome - no previous experience necessary. All children must be accompanied by adults.

About Perrott Hill

Perrott Hill is an independent day and boarding prep school for girls and boys aged 3-13 located on a beautiful estate just outside Crewkerne, on the borders of Somerset and Dorset. The school partnered with OSR Projects for the inaugural Lockdown Pottery Project, providing facilities that enabled 150 pupils from 6 schools in the South Somerset area to engage with creative activities throughout lockdown. The school children made ceramic tableware that has become part of Fairland Collective’s ‘moveable feast’ and can be seen at Dawe’s Twineworks during Od Arts Festival 2021.

About Od Arts Festival

Od Arts Festival returns this May, bringing exhibitions, performances, film and workshops by local and international artists to not-so-sleepy Somerset. New and specially-sited artworks will pop up around the villages of East Coker and West Coker, in cafes, halls, houses, chapels and fields, and also online for a special digital programme.

Devised before the hiatus of the global pandemic, the guiding theme for the festival of ‘Alone with Everybody’, explores loneliness. A programme of playful, experimental and performative artworks will probe different aspects of aloneness, and ask visitors to discuss how it might be liberating as well as difficult to be alone.
