Innovative and inclusive music and arts in Cumbria and NE

SONGS OF STONE & WATER

This is our English Heritage Community Connections project:

Groups from BlueJam are responding to our local heritage sites:

Mayburgh Henge, Arthurs Round Table and Penrith Castle

through painting, film, poetry, games, music and food.

Through February and March there will be events, exhibitions, performances, picnics and gatherings which are open to the public to celebrate the work that has been created.

BlueJam groups taking part are:

Wednesday and Thursday Painting for Wellbeing groups
CreateJam group for young creatives
FridayJam group for families with young children not in school

Public events:
March 8th: Folk picnic at Mayburgh Henge – entry (booking essential)

March 20th: Keswick Film Festival Fringe, Alhambra, Keswick 3-4pm

March 22nd: All day extravanganza at BlueJam Arts Space – the building will host art exhibitions, a play area, relaxed concert, ceilidh, poetry readings and film showings. The work will stay up throughout April – visiting times TBA

Also there are 3 other Penrith groups running projects simultaneously and you can see their activity below. We are excited to be working in collaboration with them and hope these strong community links will continue after the project has ended.
