Dancing with antlers—People who come to The Christmas Revels are fascinated (or mystified!) by the Abbots Bromley Horn Dance. So, just for fun, we hold a Bromliad. Come learn the dance. Bring your own antlers (branches can make pretty good antlers – or hands). Or just bring a picnic and watch. We’ll also play some games, sing a few rounds, and have an art project with Mauricio Robalino for children to do. FUN! |

Singing on the Bridge of Glass to sing-out summer and sing-in autumn. We’ll distribute song sheets and encourage everyone to join in. After singing at various places on the bridge, we'll wrap up with a few lovely rounds in the amphitheater beside the History Museum. Bring a lantern. We’ll light them as the sun sets. Beautiful.
