Dialogues with the Severn - Guided Walk Sunday with Kel Portman

Join walking artist and lecturer Kel Portman for a guided walk along the River Severn at Arlingham to observe, reflect, connect, and create. These immersive walks offer an opportunity to encounter the river and its surrounding landscape through different perspectives. Along the way, you will engage with the character, stories and ecology of this unique environment, taking time to notice what is often overlooked and to consider your own relationship with the River. There will be several stops to sketch, photograph or write and respond to the land and riverscape

The number of participants is limited to 10, so please book in advance.
