Rites of Way With Mr Hardy

Event Launch in conjunction with the Thomas Hardy Society

Monday 12th July 7.00pm at the Thomas Hardy Birthplace Visitor Centre

Rites of Way with Mr Hardy - Stories that take you into nature, and into your heart

The woods are full of stories. Come on a walk with us and listen.
Arts organisation ScreenPLAY invites you to the launch of their new project developed in partnership with the Thomas Hardy Society and Dorset Council. 
Rites of Way with Mr Hardy is a wellbeing walk through the woods around Hardy’s Birthplace delivered through a mobile phone web app.
Meeting at the Visitor Centre, we’ll walk up to the garden at Hardy’s Cottage where artists Sharon Hayden and Alastair Nisbet will introduce the project and actors Rod Drew and Perweena Whitmore will read some of Hardy’s work from the project. Bring smartphone and headphones.

Stories that take you into nature: Rites of Way with Mr Hardy includes poetry and prose by Hardy as well as stories from the Celtic tree calendar
