This joyful and fun workshop with Alex Merry and Boss morris lasts around one hour. Whether you’re trying morris dancing for the first time or are an experienced dancer, join the UK’s most famous and friendly morris side for an unforgettable session.
Founded in 2015, Boss Morris is a group of female creatives supported by professional musicians who share an artistic and progressive vision of morris dancing as a means to increase interest in this ancient folk dance. They utilise their creativity to reimagine a modern vision of tradition, through their performance, costume and beasts.
Suitable for Ages 10 and over, under 14s must be accompanied by an adult...Please bring water and wear whatever shoes you like to dance in!
These events accompany ‘KIT’ - Field System's vibrant new exhibition of contemporary clothing for ritual, resistance, and reclamation. Featuring pieces by artists from across the UK alongside the Boss Morris costume archive, it explores how costume, accessories, and fashion express identity, belief, and cultural belonging.
This workshop will take place right next door to us at Ashburton Arts Centre, 15 West Street, TQ137DT. Doors at 1.45pm for a 2pm start, pop into the gallery if you get lost!
