The Meadow Finds outdoor exhibition opens this weekend at Yeovil Country Park. This is a free, two day event. Come to the Ninesprings part of the park to view artwork created by workshop participants for the meadow themed residency. I’ll be running a free, drop-in cyanotype (sun print) workshop, ‘Postcards from the park’. There will also be free printed copies of my Meadow Finds, photography walking trail map available for visitors to take away and explore the whole park.

Somerset Art Works appointed Carolyn Lefley as Artist in Residence at Yeovil Country Park for 2016. This is the second year for the Water-Meadow-Wood residency programme and the theme this year is Meadow. Carolyn worked with community groups to co-create artworks that respond to the Meadow theme. Participants explored a range of photographic techniques, from traditional sun prints to digital photography walking tours. The Meadow residency culminates in an outdoor showcase exhibition at Ninesprings. Come along and see the artworks displayed in the trees.
