Mapping Marton Wood is a new creative programme which forms the next phase of our Marton Wood Slow Art initiative. Starting this spring, we’ll be collaborating with a range of partners, artists and communities to evolve new artistic approaches and processes as we learn about and work with this precious resource over an extended period. This creative ecological initiative will explore the multiple layers of the wood as a catalyst for arts-led environmental practices, outdoor learning and engagement, health and wellbeing, and cross disciplinary collaboration, whilst raising critical socio-environmental issues. The project follows a research, consultation and engagement process which has informed this programme. We’d like to thank everyone who has contributed to this work and look forward to sharing the next stage of the journey.
We’re delighted to announce that Chrysalis Arts has recently agreed a 10-year lease with North Yorkshire County Council for Marton Wood, a 6.6 hectare woodland.
