Clearing – Closing of At The Meadow’s Edge

Gather with us in the space between the city and nature as we celebrate the closing of At the Meadow’s Edge. Artist and youth worker Meera Shakti Osborne invites you to tend to your senses; absorb the smell of pines, listen to a soundscape, receive words, share tea and space within the cocoon of natural dyed fabric screens.

This is a drop-in session, with activities unfolding during the afternoon. We’ll settle amongst the trees at a location easily accessed from West Croydon via the tram. The precise location will be shared to attendees 2 days before, with the options to meet at the tram stop and walk together.

This event closes At The Meadow’s Edge, Turf’s late summer programme taking place across Croydon’s green spaces.
