Walking with Trees (August)

[vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”innerpage-rowgraphic”][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”inner-pagetitle”] NATURE I.D. MADE SIMPLE – FOR EVERYONE Have you ever paused on a walk and wondered, “What tree is this?” Or spotted a curious flower, unusual leaf, or animal track and wished you had someone there to tell you more? Walking with Trees are free guided walks through beautiful woodland and parkland. Usually taking place on the second Tuesday of the month, we visit a different country park or venue around the Wrexham area to discover beautiful wild places. This month’s walk takes place around Llwyneinion Community Woodland, Rhosllanerchrugog where we will get to explore the mixed native trees and wildflowers of this new community project. When you book your place we will send you full details of where we are meeting. Each month we’ll take our time exploring not just the trees, but all the wild wonders that catch our eye along the way. From wildflowers and edible plants to signs of wildlife and the changing seasons, we’ll follow our curiosity and see where nature leads us. Whether you’re brand new to the natural world or already have a budding interest, this is a relaxed, welcoming way to learn more and connect with the landscape around you.

Composing Belonging

Composing Belonging returns to Wrexfest this August following a hugely successful debut earlier this year Originally created as a one-night-only performance, the project returns after its first sharing received such a positive response from audiences that the artists wanted to continue the collaboration and develop the work further. This year’s performance brings together SERA, Ayoub Boukhalfa, Yasmine Latkowski and the full Panedeni ensemble for an afternoon of original music, collaboration and conversation. At the heart of the project is a shared exploration of identity, language, heritage and belonging. Drawing on Welsh and Arabic musical traditions, the artists combine original songwriting with diverse musical influences to create new work rooted in their own lived experiences. Joining the project this year is Panedeni, whose debut EP Atamanaa was released earlier this summer. Led by Yasmine Latkowski, the North Wales-based ensemble blends Arabic and Welsh musical traditions through original compositions and reimagined folk styles, featuring oud, Welsh border pipes, violin, guitar, clarinet, flutes, Egyptian percussion, bass and vocals performed across four languages. Alongside music from Panedeni’s new EP, audiences will hear original collaborative works developed through the Composing Belonging project, individual performances from the featured artists, and hear the stories behind the music. More than a concert, Composing Belonging offers an opportunity to experience...
