Glowing.
"We arrive with heads full of work and family and things we need to do,
and then - it's all gone.
You can see it on people when they come out of the water.
Glowing."
"Hello Stranger" is an ambitious project supported by the Good Growth Fund and involves over 60 artists actively engaging with diverse individuals and communities.
The outreach is extensive, from collaborating with St Petroc’s and those experiencing homelessness, working with disadvantaged and marginalised young people in Cornwall, involving Death Cafe’s and people experiencing loss, engaging with Ukrainian refugees, connecting with people living with disabilities, building relationships with the WI, and reaching out to individuals in the hospitality and farming sectors.
As part of this comprehensive project, Wildworks have also fostered partnerships with Cornwall schools.
This includes conducting workshops in ten secondary schools, where they introduce their innovative approaches to theatre in the landscape.
