As the nights turn darker, join storyteller Marianne Powell and artist Lizzie Ault of @‌talesfromthefen for Wild Roots, a night of stories and sketching at Ely Museum.

You’ll be invited to enjoy live storytelling and creative drawing activities inspired by traditional tales of light and dark.

This relaxed, inclusive workshop is the perfect way to celebrate the turn of the seasons. Listen as timeless stories come to life, then let your imagination flow onto the page with creative drawing activities. Whether you try your hand at sketching, write a poem, story or even a song, everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary - see where inspiration takes you. There will be a break for delicious refreshments provided by @sneakyvegkitchen to fuel your creativity.

Materials will be provided and (perhaps surprising) drawing prompts will be suggested but feel free to bring your own sketchbook and do your own thing if you prefer.
