SUPER SATURDAY -
@theboxplymouth Creatures for Change Workshop
2-4pm
24 October
Urban Room
Ground floor, Roland Levinsky Building
University of Plymouth
Workshop designed and led by
@devontippingdesigns So pleased to see the work that we (@joannedorothea and
@everydayelvis) started with @theboxplymouth and
@plymartscinema back in 2023 to imagine the way we live ‘now’, start to take shape publicly this autumn!
In March this year, I brought together 40 practitioner-researchers and city culture folks to shape a public programme of performance, artworks, workshops and walks to respond to The Box Plymouth’s upcoming exhibition that marks the 80th anniversary of Jill Craigie’s film The Way We Live.
Over the summer, I’ve worked with colleagues to shape these ideas and produce 8 new projects, supported by the Urban Room’s
@iamhannahirwin and Katie Shorten. These sit alongside work by
@katharineswillis and others to form a big, city-wide autumn festival involving
@nudgecommunity and many others
First up is this workshop for The Box Plymouth’s October 24 Super Saturday. Devon Tipping will be running Creatures for Change, which connects rural and urban folklore - as happens in The Way We Live, when the Copperwheat family is moved to Horrabridge. Imagine your guardian spirit that will help you imagine Plymouth’s future!
Free, but booking is required. Follow links to the online shop in The Box’s bio
I’ll be posting more information about upcoming events in the next week. But hold 7 November as the next big day, with walks, screenings and a new performance by Crab & Bee (Phil Smith and
