SUMMARY:Exhibition: Kim Whitby - Chiaroscuro
DESCRIPTION:Malvern-based artist Kim Whitby’s solo exhibition at Malvern Theatres\, ‘Chiaroscuro’\, runs from 6 January to 10 February 2025. \nKim writes: “I am interested in where drawing stops and painting starts. Inspired by a visual interest in structures\, my work in Indian drawing ink on unbleached British paper evolves to explore tone\, pattern and texture\, in varied mark-making techniques. I prefer working with spontaneity en plein air in places of historic\, geographical or unique character.” \nThe exhibition is being held in the Circle Bar. The exhibition should be accessible whenever the theatre is open\, but it’s advisable to ring 01684 892277 to check opening times if making a special journey.

SUMMARY:Pages from Nature: Walk through the Pleasure Grounds
DESCRIPTION:Purchase a booklet inspired by the 1824 guidebook to Croome\, the Hortus Croomensis\, to explore the garden.

Delve into quotes from the two-hundred-year-old text to feel transported back two centuries. \nA copy of the booklet costs £3 and the route is approximately 2 miles long (on hard-surface paths). Booking is not needed\, but normal admission charges apply. \nVisit the website for Croome’s opening hours and further information.

SUMMARY:Wild Imagination Exhibition (Animation) with Sarah Taylor Silverwood
DESCRIPTION:The animation is a creative response to Croome’s “Pages from Nature” theme\, inspired by the Hortus Croomensis\, a comprehensive guide to the estate’s abundant and exotic plant collection written by William Dean\, who was Head Gardener at Croome back in 1824. Sarah worked with young participants from the local area to examine some of the flora found in William Dean’s publication that still thrive today. They gathered drawings and captured sounds that the artist transformed into characters that go on a wild adventure across Croome’s gardens. \nField recordings and observations from the participants have been produced into an accompanying soundtrack produced by artist Anna Palmer. \nEntry to the exhibition (animation) is free\, but normal admission charges apply for the venue. Booking is not required. \nThis project is generously supported by the Tony Brooks legacy and public funding from Arts Council England and The Elmley Foundation. \nVisit the National Trust website for more information\, including opening times.

SUMMARY:Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Legendary fantasy authors JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were frequent visitors to the Malvern Hills around the middle of the 20th century and the distinctive landscape may have inspired features of Middle Earth and Narnia\, like the Giant’s Cave from the Hobbit and the Victorian gas lamps from The Lion\, the Witch & the Wardrobe. \nA century earlier\, authors Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens visited Malvern for the Water Cure and most of the treatment centres and guest houses still remain. \nThe Malvern Hills Literary Loop starts at the Mr. Tumnus bench in Priory Park and heads up past Knotsford House where Dickens stayed to Lewis’s former school Cherbourg House before pausing at the Lewis Memorial in Rosebank Gardens and following the gas lamps up to St. Ann’s Well cafe. \nAfter admiring the views around North Hill\, the trail descends to Alexandra Rd where Lewis’s close friend & biographer George Sayers lived\, opposite the former home of composer Edward Elgar. \nThe loop then heads up past Montreal House where Darwin stayed during his daughter’s treatment and past Lewis & Tolkien’s favourite pub The Unicorn Inn before passing the Hobbit door and down to Malvern Priory to find Anne Darwin’s grave and potentially the original Narnian gas lamp. \nDates and booking\nThe walks are available on many dates\, often with the option of two start times on the same day. For more information\, including prices\, availability and to book. visit the Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens page on Airbnb.
