Wednesday 28th August 11.30-2.00pm. Meet at St. Andrew’s Church, Covehithe.
Inveterate beach-comber Simon Raven will facilitate this beach-combing event close to Benacre Broad. Covehithe and Benacre are among the wildest and most attractive parts of Suffolk’s coast, a 20 minute walk from the nearest car park or habitation. The beaches are a mix of pebbles and sand backed by steadily eroding sandy cliffs pitted with the nests of Sand-Martins.
Simon will give a short introduction to beachcombing as a source of ideas for creativity, followed by a walk from the church along the cliff path to Benacre Broad where we will use ‘quadrats’ as a means of getting our eyes more accustomed to seeing potential treasures at our feet. This will be followed by a playful task designed to get participants into their inner creative zone before releasing everyone to develop ideas and look for possible materials that might become the basis for developing further ideas at home.
