People, like the environments they inhabit need treating with care and respect.
The Phoenix Rising project commenced in April 2021 delivering a series of art taster sessions in the Kirkby Lonsdale area, followed by 9 months of activities for people from Central & North Lancashire and South Cumbria.
The programme aims to help people experiencing sadness, anxiety, loneliness and low mood by exploring our connectedness with each other and the world we inhabit.
During the programme we will honour the fragility of the earth and also ourselves, aiming to develop a deeper sense of hope and respect for all.
The programme is co-designed by visual arts organisation Green Close, the Gathering Fields eco-retreat centre, Lancashire Wildlife Trust and the Mandala yoga & wellbeing centre, Preston.
