Passing the Parcel

#passingtheparcelproject

A creative correspondence project connecting the generations, unwrapping the layers of the parcel to get to the heart of the community.

Passing the Parcel is a collaboration between Ellie Robinson-Carter & Sally Crabtree, award-winning poet. Framed by the gradual unravelling of a physical pass-the-parcel, each layer reveals a theme under which the correspondence takes place. The two groups compose songs, write letters, create poetic objects, delving further into their own creativity and that of a new friend.

After running a pilot with Penryn Memory Cafe and year 9 students rom Penryn College in summer 2018 - funded by Awards for All, the Big Lottery - Passing the Parcel will be launched at Ellie & Sally’s conference at Falmouth University in July 2019 titled “Only Connect!”: A Community Symposium of Creative Practice & Research. This conference is funded by FEAST, the Arts Council, Invest Cornwall, Cornwall Council and Falmouth University. Please email onlyconnectconference@gmail.com for more details and to book your ticket.

Thank you to MAYN, Falmouth for the photographs.
