'As I walked out...'
'As I walked out......' an eight week epic journey with four donkeys, chickens, carts, children, young people and of course artists walking across the six districts of our county.
Fairgame Theatre in partnership with SVA is delivering this extraordinary art based project this summer.
In each district a commissioned artist will work with community groups delivering inspirational arts initiatives inspired by the walking, the landscape, the views and the outside environment. These artists will share a passion for the landscape; and their role will be to encourage people to appreciate their county and explore their own creativity.
There have already been two successful camps at Stroud and Cirencester. These events plus stories and photos of the journey can be followed on our project blog at http://asiwalkedoutdonkeys.blogspot.com/
There are still four more camps to choose from, which can be booked via our office: Tel: 01242 695570; Email: enquiries@fairgametheatre.com. Details are as follows:
