Organisers of Buckinghamshire’s Open Weekend are inviting submissions for their celebration of creativity and culture.
Happening over four days, from 28th-31st July, the theme for 2022’s Open Weekend events will be ‘trees and green’, building on the celebrations for the Queen’s Jubilee in June,
Bucks Culture have made some suggestions for what they'd love to see, including:
· A local tree, wood, park or garden – telling stories, delivering creative workshops, outdoor performance, or transforming spaces
· Stories about trees – encouraging people to think about our landscape heritage, exploring folk tales, sharing stories and memories linked to trees
· The environment and green agenda – encouraging people to think about re-use, recycling and sustainability
· The colour green itself – monochrome painting workshops, nature inspired creativity, green objects from collections to base activities around.
Submissions for events/activities can be made between the 25th of April and 1st June via the online form at www.buckinghamshireculture.org/Open-Weekend
Bill Morris, Buckinghamshire Culture Co-Chair said: “In light of the enjoyment and support that Open Weekend received in 2021, we felt we had no choice but to bring it back as annual event – we can’t wait to see what people put on! We are also really pleased to share that Visit Buckinghamshire will be supporting our What’s On listing this year. “
