Walking with Wild Writer James Canton

Come on a walk around Wivenhoe Park, led by wild writer James Canton.

James will take us on a tour of its trees, paths and glades, stopping to read from his books that take their inspiration from nature, such as the seminal ‘The Oak Papers’.

It’s a great way to discover Wivenhoe Park as James Canton takes us on a journey through his writing and its inspiration.

We will then go onto create our own zines back in Art Exchange – something for you to take away and jot down your own words of wisdom!

Admission Free - all welcome. There's no need to book, just drop by.

Arrive at Art Exchange and our team will show you where to find us in the park.
