It’s all happening at the Museum of Dartmoor Life this autumn. Several of our members, along with a whole host of other amazing local people, have co-curated a magical collection of exhibits for the Magic & Myth Exhibition. Visitors can meet the spirit of Old Crockern, marvel at a 120-year-old piskie pipe, and read handwritten spells by a local Dartmoor witch. You might even spot some of our kit!
Our hugely knowledgeable Squire Ant (aka the Morris Encyclopaedia) is also leading a talk on Mythical, Monumental, Moorland Morris! on Wednesday 9th October between 7 - 9 pm at the Museum. Ant will explore how Dartmoor inspires Morris locally, focusing especially on the way we choreograph compelling dances that bring moorland myths, legends, and monuments to life. Tickets can be bought in advance for £6 from the Museum.
Be quick if you want to see the exhibition, it ends at the beginning of November.
