SUMMARY:Od Arts Festival - Still and still moving
DESCRIPTION:From sunken lanes and smugglers paths to the virtual landscapes of computer generated worlds\, Still and still moving will explore responses to human movement through space and time\, both real and imagined. \nThe festival will disrupt the surface stillness of its rural setting\, with art and creative community activity. Exploring the different ways we navigate\, understand and connect to the world around us\, from ancient way making and international trade to the almost imperceivable slow or unseeable motion of plants and rocks. We invite people to walk with us\, stray off the path and discover new ways to think about the journeys we make. \nFurther plans for workshops and events\, including circle monument making\, bookbinding and a communal lunch during the festival and more artists will be announced in the coming weeks.

SUMMARY:Drop in Pottery workshop
DESCRIPTION:Make your own clay talisman and join in the Od Arts Festival which takes place 26 – 28 May. Talismans are traditionally portable objects endowed with magical properties\, usually to protect the owner\, made to fit comfortably in the hand\, something to hold tightly whilst walking. Imagine smugglers navigating the dark leafy lanes at night\, slightly fearful of being discovered\, but given courage by holding a talisman as they walk.\nTaking inspiration from artist Sara Trillo’s ‘Holloways and Hide-aways’ Walks\, you will be guided by us to make your own commemorative keepsake. They will be fired and can be collected along with a badge during the Od Arts Festival 26 – 28 May.\nhttps://odartsfestival.co.uk/sara-trillo/\n\nDrop in Saturday 6 May – 10am -1pm\nOSR Projects\, Church St\, West Coker\, Yeovil BA22 9BD\nNo experience necessary\, all welcome. It’s free!

SUMMARY:Od Songs with Phil Owen
DESCRIPTION:Join a unique workshop with the singer and artist Phil Owen. \nAbout a century ago\, a group of folklorists travelled through the English countryside\, collecting old folk songs from some of the last remaining people who remembered them. Many hundreds of songs were collected in Somerset and Dorset\, including in the Cokers. \nIn a workshop on Saturday 11 April\, we will learn a selection of songs from in and around East and West Coker\, and find out about the people who sang them. We will also discuss what it might mean to sing the songs today\, as a way of engaging in local community heritage. \nPhil Owen is a singer and writer from North Somerset. His work is informed by a strong interest in the relationships between voice\, heritage and place. With Megan Wakefield\, he ran the experimental literary salon Tertulia. \nContinuing our relationship with Phil Owen as an artist\, this workshop follows a recent performance at Coker Court\, and Phil’s outdoor performances of O is this called Lord Bateman’s castle\, and is his Lordship here within?\, throughout the Cokers for Od Arts Festival 2018. \nAll singers welcome. The workshop is also open to non-singers who would like to find out more about the songs. \nTime: Saturday 11 April\, 2-4.30pm \nPlace: OSR Projects\, Church Street\, West Coker\, Somerset\, BA22 9BD \nCost: Free but ticketed via Eventbrite \nAccess: the venue is wheelchair accessible\, with an accessible toilet. Please contact us if you have other access requirements. \nFree but ticketed. Spaces are limited\, so we advise early booking. Book your place via Eventbrite
