Princetown to Ivybridge

We set off on a beautiful sunny day, 29 walkers and 4 dogs. Walking on the west bank of the River Erme, following the longest standing stone line in Europe! .


This little known valley has an abundance of archeological and historical sites....stone age, bronze age, tinners huts, ancient woodland 14.2 miles we walked .. a new way of knowing the Valley

RIVER ERME VALLEY INITIATIVE

 

A PERIPATETIC INVESTIGATION OF PLACE



mouth to source



This is an artist led initiative to create opportunities for re-engagement with our local environment. Arts as catalyst in stimulating participation.



Using multi-sensory learning and social ecologies the purpose is to to find new ways of re-connecting with our local area, I believe, necessary for future social and environmental change.



A "Civil Artist" in every community?



The initial Community of Ivybridge Project gives the history that has led me to extend this initiative to the length of the River Valley, broadening participation across more communities.
