Exploring the Rivers

08 May 2024

Work has started on our exciting new project on the rivers of Wimborne and we very much hope to be able to produce an outdoor exploration on this theme in 2021.

As part of the research and development phase about the role and associations of rivers in Wimborne, members visited the flooded River Allen in January, walking from Walford Mill to the town centre on the look out for suitable locations.

On Saturday 8th February (1.30 - 4 pm) we met to consolidate our thoughts on sites and themes and clarify an outline for the river project. Lockdown has provided some challenges but we have continued to meet on-line and to find ways of continuing the creative process through group writing and artistic responses to our town's rivers.
