LRH® Tech Seminars

This year will bring a new understanding of how the Basic Books and Lectures can be used to help you in your art. Seminars also include information on the Art Series, Admin Scales and personal enhancement. Discover how you can fulfil your artistic dreams and flourish and prosper as an artist.

The One Day Show

Following last year’s spectacular One Day Cinderella, you are invited to take part in this year’s fabulous One Day Peter Pan, devised, rehearsed and performed in under 24 hours. All attendees are welcome to add their dramatic and artistic skills to this fun-filled event.

Youth for Human Rights

Use your artistic talent to support our Youth for Human Rights Festival Day. Songs, pictures, dances— we are looking for your expression of our basic rights.

Film Festival

Each year we devote an evening to showing films by Arts Festival attendees. This year we add a three-day filmmaking professional workshop, as well as the phenomenally successful animation workshop and film acting seminars.

Sing and Perform

Avail yourself of the many opportunities to perform. We have workshops in singing, guitar, drumming, ethnic music and jazz.

Dance

From ballet to flamenco, hip-hop to tap and modern, belly dancing to African stomp. Whatever your tastes, you can dance the week away with workshops and performances.

Act

Drama has been part of the festival for many years. Each year offers a new dramatic venture and opportunity coached by professional actors.

Write

Best-selling author, Roger Ellory, returns this year to follow up on his fantastic 2007 success with workshops that rekindled the writing ambitions of attendees. Watch out for news of exciting developments in our writing programme.

Paint and Draw

Each year the Festival has a dedicated art tent where you can work with professional artists to improve your skills: portraits, landscape, calligraphy, figure work.

Continuous workshops all week.

 

Poetry

Bring out the poet in you with workshops to fire your creative engines. Be part of the Festival Poetry Book which will be published after the Festival.

Sculpture

Last year saw the inauguration of the Saint Hill Sculpture Walk with the inspirational sculpture: ‘Totem for Freedom #1’ created by Swiss artists, Sara.H and DelaPerouze, with participation from all Festival attendees.

This year the Perroud family return with another exciting sculpture product.

You too could be a sculptor for a week and join in this production.
