Winterfest 2011





We were asked to provide a creative play space for families attending the Winterfest. A celebration of and for all the groups and community involved in Transition Town Totnes. A day to invite others to see what has been achieved in the last 5yrs and the opportunity to join in co-creating the future.
We made mice from toilet roll tubes, christmas crackers and sock puppets for the puppet theatre we incorporated into one end of house-About. Paint and brushes were used with colourful abandon on 2 sides of the house which were built of cardboard.

Dartington Village Hall 11th Feb

 This event was to celebrate the success of the grant application  to insulate the village hall. There was tea and cakes followed by cheese and wine. Children were invited to make a room in a box by Ruth and Sarah, with some fantastic and inspiring results.

The Big Draw

The next event was The Big Draw on 28 th October up in the Rotherfold, a beautiful under used square at the top of Totnes high Street. The day was bright and crisp. We had amassed stacks of cardboard and the Theme was “ taking a line for a walk into the future”. We had black and white paint and chalk. Participants were asked to draw there visions of themselves and community in the future and we had some very beautiful and thought provoking images created. House about had a complete cardboard makeover. This event was co-ordinated by Janey Hunt and myself with our TTTAG hats on and we were ably assisted by Sarah Bainbridge and Ruth Rae, House-About's team as well as local illustrators, Wendy Howarth and Bethan Welby
