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]
