In January 2024 we launched a pop-up Sharing Space at the British Library. During the three month residency, every Tuesday we invited a wonderful selection of artists, poets, musicians, storytellers and crafters to come and share their Earth Stories with us. And of course free tea cake and veggie supper! After twelve very popular sessions an Earth Stories Exhibition was co-created and displayed.
We are delighted to have been invited back to the British Library to host a monthly Sharing Space on the second Tuesday of each month from May 2024.

Another outcome of the residency was the creation of a very moving soundscape by young music producer: Lucid_productions . We think it sums up the spirit of our Sharing Space.
Poet Mary Dickins ran two poetry workshops calling on people to consider where we come from, not in terms of place or country but in terms of our connections with the Earth. The outcome was this wonderful Cento poem ‘We are Humans’. The photo shows Shaoli Choudhury from the British Library scribing the poem. Read the poem…
Here are some photos showing the artwork produced during the sessions:
