Saltmarsh rap workshop
Join us for a unique and creative music workshop with nature rapper Martin Shiells.
Date: Sunday 7th June
Time: 11.00am-1.00pm
Cost: This is a free workshop but booking is essential.
In this session, you’ll explore the saltmarsh at Steart Marshes and the wildlife that inhabits it (dragonflies included!), taking inspiration from what you see while out on the reserve and transforming this into an original rap - rhythm and poetry.
This fun workshop will guide you through the process of turning ideas into something that flows. No previous rap or writing experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and an open mind! Connect with nature and express yourself creatively.
Please note - we will be working outside on the nature reserve, so dress accordingly, sturdy shoes are recommended. All materials for the event will be provided.
Where to meet: Meet by the Mendip hide. This is a 10 minute walk from the car park Steart Marshes, Stert Drove, Bridgwater, Somerset, TA5 2PU.
Please contact info.steart@wwt.org.uk with any questions.
These workshops form part of the Steart: Connecting Coastal Communities Project, made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we are creating opportunities in the heart of the local community designed to deepen engagement with saltmarsh and wetlands.
