Wellbeing Calendar #21: Trees, tunes and crafts


MEDIA RELEASE: The views expressed in this article are those of the author and not Bailiwick Express, and the text is reproduced exactly as supplied to us

An eclectic musical repertoire, locally made arts and crafts and a colourful park are among the things not to miss this weekend.

Each week, Bailiwick Wellbeing shares a selection of sporty and community local events for you to get involved in.

Here are the top picks...

Glimmer Fusion Festival

When? Saturday 11 February

Where? Royal Showground

What? If you like science and the arts, this is the festival for you. With live music, stage performances, street performers, animal shows, workshops, food stalls, interactive areas and more, there will be something for all!

Dreaming Trees

When? From Sunday 12 to Sunday 19 February – 18:00 to 21:00

Where? Howard Davis Park

What? The trees of Howard Davis Park are coming alive with the sound of music… and light this half-term. Come explore the illuminated park and learn more about Jersey’s fantastic trees and the exciting scientific research that shows how trees communicate and share resources across a ‘wood wide web’.

For the island’s first park illuminations event, sound artist and film score composer Tony Langlois has developed a bespoke soundscape.

Be sure to stay for something special when the clock strikes on the hour.

St. Ouen’s Craft Market

When? Saturday 10 February – 09:00 to 16:00

Where? St. Ouen Parish Hall

What? Looking for a unique gift for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day or someone special? Come and see a selection of art, crafts and other items made by local artisans.

JASTO Concert

When? Saturday 11 February – 19:30

Where? Les Quennevais School

What? Students, staff, family and friends of the Jersey Academy of Music are getting together for an orchestral programme featuring requests from the academy’s senior students. After a rip-roaring debut performance last year, JASTO is returning with a repertoire including Bizet's Carmen Suite, West Side Story, Lala Land, Hoedown from Rodeo and Eden in our Hands from the Durrell Suite by Derek Lawrence.
