Small Festival 2020 - Free - Online!
We hope you are well, and excited to be part of the Online Small Festival - this summer we need it more than ever. As usual, it's your unique ideas and creative energies that make this event so special and such a joy to be a part of.
BOOK NOW
Although the event is free we need you to let us know your ideas for participation so that we can plan the event. We don't have very long to do this, and the shape of the event will be dictated by your ideas. You can still attend even if you don't want to offer anything of course. But do fill out the form so we can include you in future emails.
We are starting the planning on 24th May, so we would love your booking forms ASAP
SCHEDULE
We haven't fixed the timescale yet. We will be guided by what comes. It's unlikely to run from Fri am to Mon pm non stop! It may be something to drop in and drop out of over the weekend. With a gathering together for opening, closing, and the cabaret perhaps.
ZOOMING AWAY
We are going to use Zoom to host the event, so if you run a workshop you will need a Zoom account. (£14.39 – reimbursable if necessary.)
Zoom allows large numbers to join, and break out groups to be formed, so no need to feel unnecessarily limited. We can help with tech if you need it.
CABARET PERFORMANCES
These could be recorded in advance, uploaded to YouTube, and then played back for a live show. All technical ideas and assistance welcome to enhance this experience!
YOUR IDEAS ARE NEEDED NOW!
So far ideas include, Book Group, Pilates, Science Webinar, Karaoke, Wim Hof breathing technique, Action Learning, Wabi Sabi repairs, Werewolves, Disco, Cabaret Performances.
WHATSAPP
We'll use this as well, for communications, as well as sharing stuff.
SIGN UP NOW
Please complete the booking form and return asap
Looking forward to sharing the new Small Festival Re Imagined with you very soon!
With love
The Small Festival team

Welcome to the Small Festival 2020
|
We are back again this year at the wonderful Kench Hill near Tenterden in Kent.
For anyone who hasn’t been… The Small Festival, now in it’s 16th year, is a completely participatory event - a space where people can explore and express their creative potential in an atmosphere of trust and support. All festival-goers are encouraged to participate and contribute – there is no divide between ‘performers’ and ‘audience’. The idea is that when everyone participates, the distinction between audience and entertainer dissolves and this creates a special quality, a rewarding alternative to pre-packaged entertainment. There is always an exciting array of events for adults and children – with workshops ranging from cookery workshops to calligraphy, men and women’s groups to open mic sessions, political debates, children’s crafts, drama, treasure hunts – basically, whatever participants bring. The schedule is created each year based on participants’ contributions. There is a cabaret in the evenings where you can perform music, put on a small sketch or play, or be part of the very appreciative audience. Everyone, including the organisers, volunteers their time freely and the result is a fantastic rich mix of workshops and entertainment. People discover hidden talents. Children love the free space, and parents benefit from their children’s freedom, allowing them to participate in the events. Book your place, learn about what to expect, accommodation and catering.
