As part of Od Arts Festival 2020 - Alone with everybody, The Walking Reading Group invite participants to explore aspects of loneliness and isolation through selected texts, that offer different ways of thinking about the topic. The texts consider the loneliness of digital hyper-connectivity, rural remoteness and artists’ experiences of solitude.

Initially intended to lead to a series of intimate exchanges that would emerge over a two hour walk during the festival in May, Ania and Lydia have offered to share their selections with you now. Please sign up (for free) to receive a copy of the selected texts and, if you can, join us for a walk and talk in the Somerset landscape when the festival is reconvened... or just enjoy this selection of texts that are particularly relevant to the times we are living in now, and share your thoughts with us.

WE WILL SEND A PDF OF THE SELECTED TEXTS TO THE EMAIL ADDRESS YOU HAVE USED TO SIGN UP FOR THIS EVENT

The Walking Reading Group (TWRG) facilitates the exchange of knowledge in an intimate and dynamic way, by discussing texts while walking together. TWRG is run by Lydia Ashman and Ania Bas.
