Our Future: Perfect or Tense? Celebrating A Community Writing Project.
Event Information
About this event
As a local community festival putting this year’s events online and missing opportunities to mingle and share experiences, we wanted a project to bring everyone together virtually in the spirit of kinship that gives our area its identity. We therefore took the BWS theme of Future and appointed three Threadleaders to each give us their vision and create a piece to which we invited our community to contribute in prose, poetry, photography or any format that inspired them. One thread focuses on the racism still unfortunately prevailing; one on the “escape to the hills” that we are afforded; and the third on opening your mind to achieve your aspirations.
It is an exciting concept and we still don’t have a final outcome, so don’t yet fully know what shape this event may take. However, so far we have received some very interesting thoughts and our Threadleaders are busy weaving colourful tapestries. More details and your contributions are already appearing on our website so please check nearer the time and join us to learn what we found. Not “do not adjust your set” but, “do adjust your mind-set”!
