In an endlessly busy world, we can boost well-being by seeking out the tranquil spaces that only nature can provide.
Carpet of Blue is a short film by Sam Wichelow capturing Ecclesall Woods during bluebell season.
Liz Hanks has created a specially written soundtrack underscoring Wichelow’s film to showcase one of the most colourful yet fleeting displays in nature’s calendar.
Friday 15 May sees 2 screenings with live cello accompaniment from Liz Hanks at 4.30pm [SOLD OUT] and 6.30pm [SOLD OUT].
On Saturday 16 May we will show the film with a recorded soundtrack of Liz Hanks’ music.
The film installation on Saturday is FREE to enter, you can just drop in at any time between 10.15am – 3.30pm
There is a Flower Crown Workshop at 1.15pm [SOLD OUT] and we’re delighted that The Midsommars will give a performance at 3pm (FREE but limited capacity) to close the Carpet of Blue weekend.
Bloom Sheffield are hosting a Flower Crown Workshop on Saturday 16 May from 1.15 – 3pm [SOLD OUT]
We’re presenting this activity during bluebell season so that you can have a wander in the woods and then sit and watch the film at your leisure.
