Free entrance. As always, the Reading Room Café will also be open, serving drinks and homemade food with a warm welcome for all.
A shorter and more intense course than the traditional Bleddfa Week of Storytelling with an emphasis on performance skills and presentation.
This course is for you if you tell regularly and would like to make your performances more vivid, dynamic and varied. We will be working on freeing the body and voice so we can fully inhabit the story we are working on and bring it to life for an audience. You will be given the opportunity to hone and develop some core creative strategies for storytelling as well as consciously develop your own practice as a storyteller.
We will model a clear, effective and storyteller-friendly feedback process and start consciously using physicality, voice and space in order to tell with more ease and spontaneity. The course will expand the participants’ technical vocabulary and deepen the practical understanding of their craft.
Curated by Richard Selby who is co-owner and director of the Redfern Gallery in Cork Street, London. He specialises in Modern British Art and has over 30 years of experience in that field.
For this exhibition I have chosen a wide selection of historic works from the early twentieth century such as Alfred Wallis, Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson. I have also chosen to include a number of contemporary artists who work in or are connected to Cornwall. Ceramics by the Cornish potter Richard Phethean.
An exciting selling exhibition of artists from 1847 to the present day curated by
Richard Selby, a director of The Redfern Gallery in Cork Street, London, who has extensive knowledge and personal experience of working with key St Ives artists and their estates.
Works by Alfred Wallis, Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, Christopher Wood, Paul Feiler, Michael Canney, Danny Markey, Alice Mumford and many more will be for sale. It is a great opportunity for those who would like to add to their collection or start one from one of the most significant places in the history of British art.
The exhibition will be held at Twenty Twenty Gallery at Quality Square in Ludlow where the owners Mary and Hugh Elliott attended Bristol School of Art. Mary studied fine art during the tenure of Paul Feiler as Head of School and Michael Canney was a tutor.
Richard Phethean, the significant potter from St Ives shall also be exhibiting.
Every Saturday and Sunday 11am – 5pm (also open throughout Presteigne Festival Fri 23rd – 29th Aug and H’Art 7th – 15th September).

‘Out of the Wood’ at the Bleddfa Centre’s apple orchard is a contemporary sculpture exhibition bringing together 13 invited artists from Wales and England. The premise of the exhibition is a simple one – each participating artist was given a length of birch cordwood (4 feet long x 4 inches diameter) to utilize as they felt appropriate after visiting not only the exhibition site but also the source of the donated birch – the nearby Castlering Wood.
The resulting exhibition features a diverse and exciting collection of contemporary artworks by artists interested in the possibilities of making sculpture from a singular unit of wood as the start point.
The exhibition was made possible by the Knighton Tree Allotments Trust who kindly donated the birch cordwood.

ZEN NATURE DRAWING;
Discover that you really CAN draw!
Zen seeing/drawing is an enjoyable and relaxing eye-opener, provides a whole new way of SEEING, directly from the heart… (and offers the very opposite of an ‘art class’!)
*’What a hugely enjoyable day, relaxing, energising and really valuable teaching about the one-pointedness of meditation as well as letting go of concept about what are ‘should be’. That paves the way for true vitality in the experience and the result of drawing.’
** ‘Flowing, satisfying, liberating, uplifting’
** ‘I just loved discovering that I CAN DRAW!’
** ‘I’m surprisingly pleased and delighted by what has happened from the end of my pencil’
* No previous meditation or artistic experience is needed on any of the retreats
* All art materials are included in the fee, a huge range is offered over the course of the year
* Small groups, early booking recommended
ALL INFO & EASY ONLINE BOOKING – https://www.wayofcreativity.org/
To find that we can ALL draw is to discover a wonder-inducing and profound spiritual resource within each one of us. If you’ve never tried it, it’s eye-opening, richly engaging & delightfully astonishing!
* No previous meditation or artistic experience is needed on any of the retreats
* Unlimited art materials are included in the fee, a huge range is offered over the course of the year
* Small groups, early booking recommended
MODAL JAZZ is not only a great way to learn jazz improvisation but a fantastic way to learn improvisation of any kind, whether that’s in funk, blues, fusion or beyond! HOWEVER, THERE IS ONLY ONE PROBLEM: With all the information and ideas out there, including the strange names of the modes themselves, it can get quite confusing and we can easily lose the love for a solo over the complexity of theory.
With this Modal Jazz workshop we can break down those complexities in an easy to digest manner with a practical approach in a group/band setting.
This three-part course is designed for all instruments and voice and comes with a free handy booklet for you to reference in your future practice and development. Don’t worry if you can’t make all three workshops, as there will be something for everyone in each session to take away for your journey in modal music.
SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE WILL COVER OVER THE THREE SESSIONS INCLUDE:
– history of modal music
– singing/hearing the modes
– a bit of theory…
– developing nice soloing ideas
– harmony and rhythm with modal tunes
– learning some modal tunes by ear in a band
– ’Hip’ ideas and secrets
WHO CAN ATTEND?
This course is aimed at instrumentalists and vocalists at the beginning/intermediate stage of their development. Some basic reading is helpful but not essential. The booklet will contain music in Concert, Bb, Eb and TAB for your future reference.
WHAT’S THE COST?
Each session is 2.5 hours long with a break and costs £12 for individual sessions or SAVE A LITTLE when you BOOK ALL THREE SESSIONS IN ADVANCE FOR £32!
Whatever option suits you best, prior booking is advisable.
TUTOR: Barry-Bazmatron Edwards Bmus(hons) Jazz
Barry has studied at the Birmingham Conservatoire (2002-2006) under the guidance of well-established educators and performers in their own right. Hans Koller, Dave Cliff, Phil Robson, Gene Calderazzo, Mike Williams to name just a few. He also recorded various albums with prominent improvisers on the U.K. scene such as Mark Sanders, Paul Dunmall and Philip Gibbs.

The Hermon welcomes back Kate Allan for more monthly singing sessions, offering the chance to share your singing voice with others to make music together.
For beginners, here’s an opportunity to find your singing voice (yes, it’s there!) in a supportive group.
You might be a confident singer who wants to get away from the written page and see what comes from the group in the moment.
And for songwriters or anyone who would like to start making songs, this is a great way to open yourself up to fresh ideas and break the mould.
In a circle, starting with gentle body and vocal warm-ups, we take any note, sing it together and then invite some of the group to add another note until we’ve built a chord, listening carefully to ourselves and each other.
Then we can:-
create and develop a rhythm
explore the different sounds we can make with our voices
vary the pitch (high, low), the sound, the speed and the volume
add some body percussion eg clapping, foot tapping
come up with new ideas as a group as we go
build confidence in and awareness of our own and other people’s voices
All this happens and develops very instinctively as our intuition, creativity and innate musicality come to life.
If you’ve never heard yourself sing freely, this is the chance to find that freedom in a judgement-free, natural way.
The sessions are facilitated by Kate Allan, an experienced freelance singer songwriter and singing for health practitioner whose clients include the NHS, Severn Hospice and other health care providers.

Are you looking to develop your skills with machine embroidery or wanting to learn how to use unusual or different techniques? In this workshop you will play with experimental and unusual surfaces that can revolutionise your creative stitched artworks such as dissolvable fabric, tyvek, photo transfer paper and lutradur.
We will teach you how to draw with your sewing machine and explore all of the basic techniques of Freehand Machine Embroidery. You will have the opportunity to will play with mark making and infilling using different stitch types and you will learn what can be achieved with the four creative fabrics.
Once you feel ready, we will help you to develop an image of your choice and create a small machine embroidered piece of artwork that incorporates some of the experiment fabrics. This workshop is suitable for complete beginners or anyone wanting to develop their practice. We usually require you to bring your own sewing machine with the ability to drop the feed dog. However, if you really want to have a go before committing to buying a sewing machine, please get in touch as we can often let you use one of our own. It is also helpful if you can bring some ideas or images that you would like to work with and develop (but not essential, as we have lots of visual stimuli)
