Engage Programme
Festival of Light
16th and 17th November 2007
Savages Wood, Bradley Stoke, 5pm to 9pm
To complement the Festival of Culture Savages Wood will become a magical wonderland of light
featuring an illuminated trail lighting up trees to create a night-time kaleidoscope of colour.
Families and friends are invited to enjoy the illuminated tree trail walk around the woodland
which will be lit on both nights between 5pm – 9pm.
The event coincides with the opportunity to celebrate Diwali - the Hindu Festival of Light.
It will also help celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Bradley Stoke!
Leading up to the Festival of Light, both the Avon Wildlife Trust and
South Gloucestershire Asian Project are working with young people from Bradley Stoke Youth Club,
learning about the festival of Diwali. This work will culminate in performances by local young people of
traditional dohl drumming and dhandia ras dance at the Festival of Light, together with woodland sculpture,
live music, hot food and drink!
The event is free and open to all. No booking is required.
Sorry no dogs at this event, please bring a torch and wear warm clothing and
stout shoes.
