Myths of the Moor - a Dartmoor story walk


Details
Have you ever danced with the Devil ? Been mazed by the little folk? Seen the giants sleeping in the stones? Dartmoor is rich in legends and folk tales and these stories connect us to our unique landscape through memory and imagination.
Dartmoor based storytellers Lisa Schneidau and Sara Hurley have spent the last two years seeking out the places where giants roamed, pixies led farmers astray and Dewer rode with the Wild Hunt. They have worked with communities, elders, schools and visitors through the Chasing Crockern project to reimagine what these stories mean to us today.
Tickets are £15 plus booking fee through this link: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/lisaschneidau/1585538
