Have you been wondering what the Ian Douglas Workshop will entail?
We are very lucky that Ian has agreed to give a smaller audience a really interactive storytelling performance in our quiet room at Bewdley museum on Saturday.
We’d like to say a big thank you to our Sponsors Edshed without whose generosity this festival wouldn’t be happening!
