During the festive period we are collaborating with local artists and musicians to bring you a range of events over the festive period, including:
Film
A stop animation film celebrating the wonderful book ‘The Lightbringers’ by Karin Celestine, with thanks to the team at Kenilworth Books.
Music
Warwickshire songwriter, Ellie Gowers, has been quietly brewing her self-penned songs
for a while. A regular performer, her music embeds a fierce energy that echoes the 60’s folk revival scene and is known to hold pride of place on stage with her strong vocals.
Her songs are built through an early love of literature and traditional folk song as well as the notable observations she makes on the zeitgeist narrative of today’s society.
Ellie and her partner….. will be providing a number of street performances in collaboration with Kenilworth Round Tables Santa Sleigh Tour. Working with the Covid 19 support group we have identified a number of areas with the most isolated people and we are delighted Ellie will be bringing performances to them. The performances will be filmed so we can stream them at a later stage, but the locations will be remain a secret to prevent crowds.
Poetry
Once again we are working with the lovely Maria Ferguson and The Poetry Takeaway. Maria will be writing 10 poems based on the stories of Kenilworth residents.
