Sharing stories with the Legends of Frome group

We were invited to share some stories with Edventure's Legends of Frome team.

They shared very good stories about people from Frome.  We heard a good poem about the buildings of Frome,  it was very interesting. 

They shared a real story about how peoples lives were affected by a factory that was closed down - we learned what this would feel like.

Good sensory skills were used in all the stories - somebody offered real chips with vinegar which reminded us of fish and chip shops in Frome.  

We told a story of Silly Jack based in Frome and it made all the audience really laugh, it was a very good experience to share with other performers. It helped us both improve our storytelling skills.

There were lots of communication and action skills which helped both artist groups to work together. We'd love to find out more   stories and legends about Frome (please share with us!)


Thank you Edventure for inviting us to share stories with you!
From Clemma and Robin

Outside In at Bristol museum.

Last Thursday, Robin and Pete went over to the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery to take part in a Outside In meeting upstairs to talk about artwork by people with learning disabilities and how to display artwork in a gallery, on websites and how to sell artwork. Then after the coffee break we looked at barriers and publicity and how that may affect our artwork and listened to a talk about people's artwork going on display in public exhibitions from a member of Outside In. I have been invited to display some of my artwork in the Outside In exhibition next year. The date is May 20th 2017 at
the Bristol Museum and Gallery!
