Council continuing support for Bracknell arts week

Bracknell Forest Borough Council is supporting a number of events which are part of the annual Northern Parishes Arts Week.

The events include a performance of Puss in Boots - a magical adaptation of the classic story by theatre group Dynamic New Animation - and The Big Draw, where amateur artists can practice and learn with professional artists as part of the national campaign for drawing.

There are also Bracknell Council-sponsored street dance workshops, Irish and Caribbean storytelling duo Spud and Yam, and a DJ workshop.

They join a varied mix of arts events taking place in the parishes of Binfield, Winkfield and Warfield between October 23-28.

Other events planned include art exhibitions, poetry workshops, a drama production by the Binfield Bards, sporting events and a wide range of craft workshops.

One of the organisers Susie Haskell said: "There really is something for all ages this year in the arts week. Whether you like rugby or poetry, please find an event which interests you and come along."

Cllr Iain McCracken, Executive Member for Bracknell Leisure and Corporate Services, said: The Council is pleased to continue to support the excellent work of the Northern Parishes Arts Week.

There will be a superb mix of events taking place and I urge everyone to have a look at what’s going on.”
