Inside Out Dorset - Canopy: 24 ideas about trees

24 ideas about trees. Experience this fascinating sound installation as you walk through the forest.
Immersed in a world of trees, you are invited to discover a trail of suspended seed pods, to pause and to listen.

This evening event is a guided promenade performance. Please arrive at the Visitors Centre to meet our event stewards who will guide you through the event route. The route loop is approximately 2km total distance.

Access information for this event is available on the Inside Out Dorset website.

Audience members are requested to bring torches with them as the park will be dark.

Please arrive at the performance venue 30 minutes before the start time to exchange your ticket for a wristband. If you do not collect a wristband at this time, your ticket will be released and may be reallocated to another person on the day.

Artist Lorna Rees has collaborated with nearly 500 people to make CANOPY. Ecologists, artists, folk musicians, writers, and children have explored their connection to trees and what a forest is for. Hear stories of urban trees, dreams of future forests and exploits of woodland protectors. And remember – trees are people too.

Each sonic seed pod houses a unique sound world. Canopy invites the audience, to experience joyful, hopeful and thought-provoking sound art in a unique way. You may even come across performers while exploring the trail.
