A very special day - always is at @WordsworthGras . Fascinating talk by @JennyUglow, and @CowtonJ and a real treat to work with @equal_arts making some shape-of-the-landscape pieces before walking into that landscape.
It was a privilege to welcome @equal_arts onsite last week to explore our Bewick collection, Wordsworthian connections and their own creativity! 📖🎨
They spent time viewing items from our Bewick collection and produced beautiful artwork.
