Corby woods. After DRTT’s successful
concert with the Royal Phil Orchestra,
the group embraced a new venture,
consisting of over 40 events in the
different woods of Corby and running
from 4th September 2016 to May 2017.

The events are wide-ranging and
DRTT hopes everyone will come and
take part, enjoy, celebrate and learn
about the woodlands in a friendly and
safe way. These trees are important to
all of us for the future!

September’s events start on Sunday
4th with Spinning New Dreams, a walk
to inspire and collect for a workshop
the following weekend of printing and
stitching. Friday 9th and Saturday
10th will see The Man Who Planted
Trees, an event for all the family to tell
a story through puppetry and theatre.

Wildwood invites you into the woods at night on
Saturday 10th and, on Saturday 17th, have your
eyes opened to seeing things in new ways on a walk
through King’s Wood. On Sunday 18th, discover the
stories from Corby’s past. Photographers will enjoy
Natural Vestige, using different ‘looking devices’
to change your perceptions. Sunday 25th will be
another evening event for the family to be creative
and make their own woodland creatures.

A treasure hunt dance through the trees starts
October’s programme on Saturdays 1st and 15th with
Walking Stories. In The Lost Art of Mushrooming
you can discover them in the morning, eat them at
lunchtime and photograph them in the afternoon.
Remember when you climbed trees? Adults will be
encouraged to relive their childhood in Climbing
Trees for Grownups on Saturday 8th and Building
Dens and Hide & Seek on Sunday 9th. Acclaimed
jazz singer, Barb Jungr, leads a workshop of
movement, vocal work and improvisation inspired by
the woods on Sunday 16th. Come and draw with
