There’s a bumper crop of events happening in and around the CEH at the moment. Last week we had the fabulous event ‘Landscape Flux and Flow’ - reflecting on art and the environment, in relation to Somerset Arts Week…

Also well done to @dudleymarianna.bsky.social on Electric Wind, a phenomenal work of public history with great lessons for our times, and nice to meet @noreenmasud.bsky.social whose book A Flat Place was very much a benchmark for Drifting North to try and reach.
