Drawn To The Stories of The Stones (Adults)

Have you ever wondered about the fascinating stories of some of Cornwall’s greatest bronze ages structures? Do you have a passion for art?

If so, join our Monumental Improvement project, in partnership with Astroarchaeologist Carolyn Kennet and local Cornish Artist Sam Halstead on Friday the 16th of August for an interesting, awe fulfilling walkshop through immense natural beauty of Bodmin Moor.

We’ll explore the prehistoric past of Bodmin Moor where you’ll become inspired by the incredible views of the landscape and draw the forgotten stories of the ancient monument whilst discovering the moorlands connections with astro-archaeology.

Please bring a packed lunch, drinks and dress for the conditions on the day. We will be stopping regularly so think warm and well covered with waterproof shoes, boots or wellies! It would also be helpful if you can bring either a sit mat or a carriable folder stool or similar to perch on.

If you have preferred drawing materials and boards, please feel free to bring them, though we will supply if not.
