Penryn Arts Festival: Workshops

2017

As part of Penryn Arts Festival, Field Notes convened a series of free workshops combining art, food, conversation and making. All of the evening workshops included a community meal that brought participants together to celebrate what they had learnt.

FUNDERS AND PARTNERS
2017 saw Field Notes temporarily take the lead on Penryn Arts Festival to rethink the connection between the town and the arts. This iteration of the festival was devoted to celebrating local expertise; drawing out Penryn’s creative, skilled and resourceful local community; sharing local knowledge, revaluing haptic reasoning, showcasing Cornwall’s connection to making, and exploring contemporary art’s relationship to ancient methods and traditions. The programme included five bursaries for local artists/craftspeople, free public workshops and screening events, an artwork handling collection and a Skills Share Fair.

Penryn Arts Festival 2017 was supported by funds from Big Lottery, Arts Council England, Penryn Town Council and FEAST.
