Join forager Andy Hamilton for a foraging adventure on the Bristol Downs.

BBC favourite and expert forager Andy Hamilton will lead families on a foraging adventure around the Bristol Downs in search of edible plants.

Haul complete, the group will head back to base camp and make hedgerow-inspired mocktails. Families are invited to bring a picnic to make an afternoon of it.

Please come appropriately dressed for weather conditions on the day.  The group will meet next to Richard Long’s artwork Boyhood Line near to Ladies Mile. For a map of the site, visit here.

The workshop is most suitable for ages 5+

Richard Long: TIME AND SPACE

Boyhood Line is part of a major exhibition by Richard Long at Arnolfini, that explores the artist’s enduring relationship with the landscape of Bristol and the South West – a starting point for so many of his iconic works. This exhibition will bring together recreations of previous important works and entirely new commissions, both in the gallery and on The Downs, where the artist spent much of his childhood. A programme of events accompanies the exhibition and offsite commission, including walks, talks and conversations, family events, screenings and performances. Read more…
