DESCRIPTION: Explore and celebrate the natural abundance and rich history o
 f Bumble Hole nature reserve with this day of walking\, art and creativity
 . \n\n Bumble Hole nature reserve may appear to be an idyllic natural sett
 ing but in reality it's a landscape shaped almost entirely by industrial a
 ctivity. 150 years ago it was a site riddled with coal pits\, coke furnace
 s\, boatyards\, boiler works\, brick kilns\, clay pits and spoil heaps. No
 t to mention the constant chug of materials being transported by water and
  rail. Today though the contrast couldn't be greater - this former hive of
  extractive industry is now a peaceful haven for wildlife\, waterfowl\, in
 sects\, flora\, grassland and trees. \n\n This event\, lead by members of 
 the Walkspace collective\, will celebrate the reclamation of this land by 
 nature with a sensory guided walk followed by a flag-making workshop. We w
 ill visit some of the key points of interest around the reserve using a se
 ries of fun prompts to connect with the landscape. We will use the walk to
  generate ideas and inspiration for the flag-making activities which will 
 follow the walk\, taking place outside the visitor centre. The cotton flag
 s will be in a range of sizes and styles and they will be pre-coloured wit
 h natural dyes made from plants found locally. There will be a range of st
 amps\, stencils\, inks and other materials for participants to experiment 
 with in their designs. No artistic skills or experience is required. \n\n 
 The flags that we create will later be used in a public celebratory proces
 sion on 13th August\, for which the workshop participants are welcome to r
 eturn. Inspired by Tibetan prayer flags\, we shall be using five different
  colours: blue\, white\, red\, green and yellow to represent the five elem
 ents of sky\, air\, fire\, water and earth. Rather than being an exercise 
 in patriotic territory claiming\, the flags will represent nature and the 
 waterways reasserting their own stake in the land. \n
