The full programme will be available to download one month before Landscapes. In the meantime, do keep an eye on our contributors section, where we’ll be adding new names and details throughout the year as the gathering takes shape.

To make the most of your time with us, please bring the following:

A folding chair or blanket – Many of our sessions will be outdoors, so come prepared to sit comfortably in nature.

Paper, art materials, knitting or something to make – Bring anything that helps you reflect, doodle, create or keep your hands busy during activities. If knitting is your thing, bring it along!

Outdoor-friendly clothing and footwear – Many sessions will be outdoors if the weather is kind, but if it turns wet or chilly we have plenty of indoor space for everyone. Come ready to enjoy being outside, but don’t worry, we’ll always have a warm, dry option.

Swimming things – There is an outdoor lake at Ashburnham where swimming is available, so if a dip sounds like your kind of thing, bring your swimming costume and anything else you’ll need.

Good spirits and openness – Be ready to wander, wonder, make, rest and join in community together.

No need to pack bedding or towels – Ashburnham will provide these for you.

We’d really encourage you to read this list carefully and come prepared. It will help you make the most of everything Landscapes and Ashburnham have to offer.

We’d love to help people connect and share journeys to Landscapes. Whether you’re looking for a lift, have space in your car, or would simply like to travel with others from your area, we’ll be offering a way to connect with fellow travellers one month before Landscapes, so you can make plans to journey together.
