Connect with nature and spend time sketching outdoors in our two-part storytelling workshop series exploring migration and belonging.

Join artists Shemiza Rashid and Nadia Hussain this July for two creative workshops at Luton Henge, ahead of the summer festival.

These relaxed outdoor sessions invite you to connect with nature through sketching and storytelling, exploring themes of migration, memory, and belonging. Together, we’ll reflect on the places that shape us and what we carry when we move on.

Writing exercises will be led by Shemiza Rashid, and sketching and painting led by Nadia Hussain.
