movingartsbase and International Workshop Festival present
OPENING THE DOOR
16 and 17 August 2008 at movingartsbase, Islington,
London, N1
An experiential workshop in body, imagination and health for
artists and health professionals
with dancers Gill Clarke and Miranda Tufnell,
visual artist Chris Crickmay and
musician Sylvia Hallett.
These two days offer an environment for shared creative experiences.
We will begin in the body, moving out of our heads and into
a deeper awareness of the present moment and what is within
and around us.
How can we be more imaginatively awake to our ‘selves’
as well as the needs of others? Through an exploration of
the interconnectedness of body and environment, through moving,
writing and making, the workshop will offer ways to replenish
ourselves and to deepen understanding of health as an embodied
process.
The weekend is for all those interested in developing the
relationships between arts, health and wellbeing - and the
opening of doors between the processes of artistic practice
and both main stream and alternative health practice
Places are limited and the deadline for applications is Friday
11 July at 4pm
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION INCLUDING HOW TO APPLY please see
the attached project details. These can also be downloaded
from www.movingartsbase.co.uk, or sent by email from admin@movingartsbase.co.uk
