Evolving Events Presents ‘The Sound Lounge’.

Evolving Events CIC is an enthusiastic collective formed to bring engaging and community focused activities in vibrant spaces to learn, share and find joy in connection.

Come and join us for an informal gathering - akin to an alternative open mic - of creative play, poetry, storytelling and music at the Anchor Inn, Hartland, Devon.

We are proud to present this next session, themed ‘Flow’.

With relation to the theme, we invite you to bring along an instrument, a voice, a poem, an anecdote, a story, an object to show and tell, or just come for a listen over a drink! As well as live impromptu performances the idea is also to create an inclusive space for creative play for creative, authenative and open discussions. We would love you to be a part of this fun community event.

“Flow in the living moment...”
- Bruce Lee

We had a well attended and beautiful Sound Lounge this afternoon , with poetry, stories and music surrounding the theme ‘Journey’.
Courage, creativity, inspiration and reminiscence filled up the space that we held and everyone felt moved by one another’s contributions.

It really reminds us why we do this, and why we hold such events in our local community. Thank you to Sam and Stu at TFGL allowing us to do this in your wonderful space.

If you feel to support us, please let us know if you’d like to make a donation as we are entirely self-funded at the moment - donations go to art materials, marketing & advertising, etc. - to enable us to keep this running.

We had a fantastic weekend of curating some brilliant musicians, speakers that were creatives, makers and craftspeople. It was great to listen to some truly original music and hear their inspiring styles, as well as gaining insight into extraordinary minds and people’s experiences in the creative world.
Thanks to for bringing such a great community of craftspeople together to support this event, and having us on board to organise the live music and talks segments.
Thank you to everyone who attended this festival! 🙌🏻

SPEAKER INTRODUCTION @ CREATED FESTIVAL

Bex Simon has long been interested in the mathematics of the natural world. After receiving a scholarship from QEST (Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust) she studied five different courses in geometry at the Prince’s School of Traditional Arts. This enabled her to create a new contemporary style Geometalism of combining traditional compass drawn geometry, laser cutting into metal plates, and hand forging components, to create a wonderful contrast of old and new techniques.

Bex’s logo shows a triangle which is the geometric symbol for fire. A circle is a symbol of unity and the infinite ‘whole’ in both nature and geometry.  Geometry is about togetherness and being one with the natural world, which is a perfect representation of her work and its connection to things happening around us.

Throughout the ages Artists reflected what was going on in culture and society. Bex recognises that a new contemporary movement is now required amongst the Artist Blacksmiths, and this is why she uses the term Artsmith to distinguish her new style which she calls Geometalism. She is unconstrained in her approach to design, drawing inspiration from limitless sources of research mixing geometric shapes and textures. Her Sculptures, gates and Public Art tell stories relative to the surrounding environment.

SPEAKER INTRODUCTION @ CREATED FESTIVAL

James Millman is an acoustic guitar maker from North Devon advocating the use of our wonderful and often overlooked native timbers. He works with simple traditional hand tools and finishes all his instruments with a completely natural hand rubbed finish, one of which he produces using nut and plant oils.

SPEAKER INTRODUCTION @ CREATED FESTIVAL

Jane Sharkey is a multidisciplinary artist, living for the last three years on Lundy. She considers herself a crafter and a walker.

Crafting activities are wide ranging and often linked with Lundy; weaving with wool from the island sheep, land art using found objects, basket making from ghost nets.

Jane has just completed an MA in Fine Art where her work centred on walking as an artistic practice. This socially engaged practice explored how site-specific performance can deepen visitors’ connections to the landscape. Through creative interactions, she helps visitors uncover the layers of history, stories, and natural elements that shape the environment. Themes of journeys and pilgrimage were central to this work.

We had another amazing session of The Sound Lounge @thefeelgoodlarder . Some great discussions were had about the theme ‘Love’, not just about the happy, joyful type but also the other side of love, the struggles and difficulties of manoeuvring love and connections. It was heartwarming to listen to some brilliant anecdotes and stories, poetry, readings, as well as some great musical performances. Thank you all who came today to this safe and held space that we’ve created collectively. You have all made this happen. Till our next one!!! 🙌🏻 . . #northdevon #heldspace #sharingspace #devon #barnstaple #thesoundlounge #feelgoodlarder #community #stories #poetry #music #livemusic #creativeexpression #honesty #goodpeople #creativecommunity #evolvingevents #coffee #coffeeandcake
