What is 'The Project'?

The Project’ is an interim process of small, viral, organic events during 2009 & 2010, building to the possibility of a larger festival of arts, culture & faith (inspired by, but not exactly imitating Greenbelt)  in 2011. 

As yet, such a large festival event has no clear or predetermined shape or consensus about its form, length, breadth, geography or season.  Whatever we end up, would arise from this series of small gatherings in 2009 & 2010, and would be inspired initially by the spirit of Greenbelt, but also would learn from other Scottish & European models such as Street Level, Carberry Festival, Kirchentag or even the Edinburgh Festival, The Mod, Celtic Connections, etc.  

The 'interfaces of engagement' would be primarily those mapped out by the likes of Greenbelt, Street Level, Carberry Festival & Kirchentag and others:
arts – faith – theology – ecology – politics –philosophy - spirituality - justice
...or basically celebration, inspiration, irreverence, laughter, tears, questions, argument, friendship, shivers up the spine - add your own noun to the list.

Who might like it?
'The Project' is for those interested in a deliberate exploration of the arts, culture and faith.  We would hope to make it a comfortable place for insiders, outsiders and maybe especially those at the margins of the church.

The festival would be primarily be adult (young and not so young), but importantly,  there would be an inclusive provision for children and families.
