SUMMARY:Sound and Vision - Creative Week (LIMITED AVAILABILITY)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nImage: Creative collaboration. Credit: Iona Community/ S. Edwards \nSound and Vision 6th – 12th July 2024 \nA week of high summer invention and creation. Enjoy readings\, workshops and learning activities around creativity: music\, poetry\, art and storytelling. Come to celebrate\, learn\, experiment\, explore against the backdrop of Iona’s stunning natural beauty. \nSound and Vision Week is designed to allow creative people and people who just want to create to live in community\, develop skills and forge new connections. Bring your inspiration\, your dreams\, ideas\, work in progress\, or just a willingness to collaborate\, experiment and learn through play. There will be informal workshops in song writing\, creative writing and visual art\, culminating in a celebratory showcase on the last night. \nWelcome to the curious and courageous\, to artists and non-artists and everyone in between. Come and create magnificent things\, or just have fun trying\, on Iona in July. \nCreative Workshops throughout the week will be led by Liz McWhirter\, the Iona Abbey Programme Team and Iona musician Jerry Akehurst. \nDetails of Liz’s Monday workshop are below and she is also giving a talk at the bookshop on Thursday at 2pm. \n\nENTANGLED FOREST: A Theopoetics Creative Writing Workshop \nA guided\, reflective space for you to respond creatively in this challenging time. Prompts for free writing will include poems\, natural objects and a short film by digital artist Jonathan Kearney. Devices such as list-making and collage will enable you to explore composting and re-purposing words into poetic forms that serve to both constrain and liberate\, whether they retain a poetic structure or lean towards prose. Work towards a poem\, prose\, a manifesto\, lament or prayer; the aim is to use language as an act of self-care\, resistance and hope. Ultimately\, new language may challenge ways of seeing and help engender change that is personal\, political\, systemic (Callid Keefe-Perry). The poet ‘never closes the case for becoming’ (Roland Faber). P.S. There’s no compulsion to share your writing on the spot! \n\n  \nLiz MacWhirter’s debut novel ‘Black Snow Falling’ (Scotland Street Press\, 2018) gained a Carnegie Medal nomination. She is writing a novel for her PhD\, exploring intersections between trauma spirituality and contemplative theology. Poetry is published by Lucy Writers\, Cambridge. Liz performed ‘Blue: a lament for the sea’ at Yale in 2023. \nCosts \n6 Nights: £762 per adult\, £381 for reduced rate – see our programme page for more information.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=”BOOK HERE” style=”custom” custom_background=”#568ea4″ custom_text=”#eae8e8″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fportal.freetobook.com%2Freservations%3Fw_id%3D43736%26w_tkn%3DZ8ayvaEvw2SsrbCpGHLzeQZxQGqxQJy163aSHXVJnHbgCb53vffml4WKihlt5%26checkIn%3D2024-07-06%26stayLength%3D6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]

The week will also include sessions on the Book of Kells\, created on Iona in honour of Columcille. The poetry created in his memory since ancient times.

In keeping with the tradition of the Highlands and Islands\, we grow produce on a system of lazy beds – long ridges divided by drainage ditches.   \nThese beds are improved and enriched by using the seaweed from the bay on our doorstep. Join us for the start of the growing season when we will be getting these beds up and running\, sowing seeds for the year ahead. In addition\, we have two polytunnels we hope to fill with colour and life for the months to come. Alongside sowing and growing\, there will be plenty of hands-on tasks around the garden: fixing up beds\, borders and compost-bins\, and being creative with willow cut from the garden.   \nNo gardening experience is necessary\, this will be the chance to learn\, share ideas and leave your mark at Camas. If you enjoy getting your hands dirty\, evenings by the fireside\, simple community living\, all in the breathtaking Ross of Mull\, then Nurture the Land Week is for you. \nThis week is led by Camas Staff.  \nA week at Camas includes:\nNature Connection: Immerse yourself in the stunning natural beauty of the Isle of Mull by walking down the track to Camas and waking up right on the shore of beautiful Camas bay each morning. \nAdventure Activities: Dive into exhilarating outdoor activities including kayaking\, abseiling\, coasteering\, wild camping and hiking. \nFireside Gatherings: Evenings filled with storytelling\, games\, music\, and laughter\, fostering bonds and creating lasting memories. \nStargazing: Lose yourself in the beauty of the night sky on the Camas lawn\, offering a chance for reflection and perspective. \nBuilding relationships: Share insights and ideas\, participate in activities and share in community life at Camas as we cook\, clean and work together. \nCost and how to book?\nThis week is offered at the discounted rate of £210 or £105 concession. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=”BOOK HERE” style=”custom” custom_text=”#666666″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fportal.freetobook.com%2Freservations%3Fw_id%3D44378%26w_tkn%3D1xcVKLXsIdJpjgijWqZqWw4SvaN42c8vGHCckW1hUwdvFHEbzpf3JfHrjBYc3%26checkIn%3D2024-03-25%26stayLength%3D5″ el_class=”tealbtn generalbtn leftbtn”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
