You will not believe the wonders that await you in the watery nooks and crannies of the old Milton Creek…The hosts Art of the magic lantern conjured up fantastical tales of monsters, forgotten places and satirical humour.

A sunset Magic Lantern performance re-enchanted and brung to life local wildlife. Through analogue projections the natural habitat spoke directly to the audience. This performative incorporated ideas and hopes of local participants from a daytime eco-slide making workshop. The artists invited participants to asks questions about climate change and local young people drew natural spirits and plant-life onto paper slides to be projected as part of site-specific celebratory event.

The free drop-in slide making workshop will take place on the Sunday 19th Sept 2021 before the performance (10am-1pm outside Room at Milton Creek). The performance begun at Room mobile space, right next to the childrens’ playground in the centre of Milton Creek country park.
