We were deligh@sarahurleystoryteller back for her second session with us. Her storytelling once again carried us into the worlds of running hares, wise women, and the land of fae and stolen primroses.Together, we began mapping out the sections of our story and sketching the early framework for our collaborative story scroll. Breaking the tale into parts helped us think about how imagery, perspective, and recurring symbols might guide the eye from beginning to end. It was fantastic to see ideas being shared so openly, a real moment of collective making, supporting one another and letting the creative energy build.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve continued our picture scroll journey, building in continuity, colour, and detail to bring the story to life. It's a beautiful way to gently step into the world of visual art and particularly painting and how storytelling and visuals cross over.

We are still finishing off our picture scroll and we will be looking to unveil it at our Summer Barn Dance. Please see the link in our bio to purchase your ticket for the 11th July 6 - 11pm!

Good morning!
🍏Have you always heard of organicARTS but never been?
🦋Did you go there once, have a lovely day and never make it back?
🪗Or do you come to the Barn Dance every year? (And tell your friends to come?)

💃Perhaps you love a Ceilidh but feel stressed by the crowds. Well, this one has plenty of space - and some of the most beautiful scenery around, for you to escape to when you need a break.

🕺Perhaps you don't yet know if you love a Barn Dance because you've never tried. Well, we have a lovely caller who guides us patiently through all the moves.

Whoever, you are THIS IS YOUR MOMENT! Saturday 11 July, 6-11pm is THE DAY!
A friendly reminder that Earlybird tickets for this year's Summer Barn Dance are on sale 🙂

Earlybird tickets available until 5 June (or until sold out):
Adult tickets: £15
Children: £5
Children 3 and under: free

The hedges are frothing with Queen Anne’s Lace, wild garlic and campion and we are really enjoying our walks on the lanes around . We saw lots of orange tip butterflies, a red Admiral and a delightfully fluffy bumblebee. Happy spring 🌱🌿🐝🦋
