SUMMARY:Texture Art Exhibition with National Trust: Soil Circus by Maya Ronchetti
DESCRIPTION:The Soil Circus is a textile art exhibition by artist Maya Roncetti on display at The Stables Gallery. Inspired by natural dyes found across the Lizard Peninsula\, the work explores colour\, material and the close relationship between art and landscape. \nMaya is a textiles and installation artist whose work explores the many ways people have connected with nature in the UK\, drawing on cultural\, historical and traditional stories\, as well as more complex relationships with the natural world. For this project\, Maya has gathered\, processed and dyed materials using plants\, working closely with National Trust volunteers and rangers to forage and collect natural dyes that have inspired and shaped the finished pieces. \nMeeting point\nStables gallery\, Penrose\, Helston\, Cornwall\, TR13 0RD \nAccessibility\nNo steps or ramps in the gallery space

SUMMARY:CAST-Off @ Penrose
DESCRIPTION:Our CAST-Off programme of free artist-led creative activities will return this summer\, with sessions taking place on Saturdays from 1 August to 29 August in the walled garden at National Trust Penrose. \nThere will be a wide range of activities to get involved with each Saturday – individual pages listing all activities will be published on our What’s On page in July. \nCAST-Off sessions will run from 10am to 12.30pm and 1.30pm to 4pm. All the activities are free and offered on a drop-in basis\, no booking required. Participants of all ages are welcome. Children must be accompanied by a responsible adult. \nOn Wednesdays from 5 to 26 August\, artist Lucy Grant will also be leading free drop-in activities in our ground floor learning studio at CAST. There will be different materials and techniques to try each week\, including painting\, printing and making. \n\nFunding: \nCAST-Off 2026 is part-funded by the Geoffrey and Carol Holland Trust and FEAST. \nSince CAST-Off first started\, the number of participants has grown year on year\, with upwards of 300 children participating in each daily session. CAST-Off is not financially supported by the National Trust and has no regular ongoing funding\, so each year we face the challenge of finding funds to sustain this programme alongside our other free learning programmes for local schools and young people. If you or your organisation are able to make a contribution\, we would be most grateful. To do so\, please contact our programme coordinator Cat Bagg cat@castcornwall.art or visit our page on the Charities Aid Foundation website where one-off or regular donations can be made. \nWeather: \nWe won’t be put off by a bit of drizzle and hope you won’t either\, but check our social media (@castcornwall) on the day in case of extreme weather or last-minute changes. \nParking: \nWe recommend parking at the Fairground car park in Helston and making your way along the footpaths to the walled garden. This route is tarmac all the way and is well suited to pushchairs\, scooters\, and bikes. The route is 2.4km / 1.5 miles\, with an approximate walk time of 45 minutes. \nFor those who need to get a little closer by car\, there is a small National Trust car park\, approximately 1km / 0.6 miles from the walled garden along the official paths. \nBus: \nIt is a 10 minute bus journey from Helston to Penrose on the number 2\, which runs hourly between Falmouth and Penzance. From the bus stop at Penrose Hill it is approximately a 10 minute walk to the Walled Garden.
