Start Date + Festivals

So... I LOVE festivals! 

Last summer I was lucky enough to go to a number of beautiful music festivals, including my most favorite - The Secret Garden Party (www.secretgardenparty.com). Its a magical event and SO much more than just good music. 

The passion of the festival organisers is interaction and participation through interactive events, dances and arts. In their own words
'It is a festival of the arts…where everyone is the artist. It is your party - your creative participation allows the festival to rejuvenate & regenerate. Our number one rule is that the festival must facilitate your participation''
Yum.

What has this got to do with my work?

Well! Festivals are a fantastic opportunity to use as a platform for arts and using this in turn to communicate a message - the best message! Right now I'm praying about going to a few of the UK's big festivals as an artist or with a team and a stand to use as a platform for sharing some of God's love. 
Watch this space... we'll see what comes about...
