SUMMARY:Dragon Folk Club session
DESCRIPTION:The Dragon Folk Club offers a weekly sing-around style session. Our sessions on 18th and 25th September will both be within a week of the 4th European Folk Day. \nEveryone is welcome whether they perform or not. Performance can be of any type as long as it’s acoustic: sing\, play\, dance\, tell a story or joke\, recite a poem or monologue. We have our foundation in all types of “folk performance”\, but nothing is excluded. If you don’t perform then that’s fine: be our audience\, join in the banter\, and maybe sing along to a chorus or several. \nYou will find us almost every Friday from 8:15pm in the barn (just past the toilets) at The Bridge Inn\, Shortwood\, Bristol\, UK\, BS16 9NG. \nWe look forward to meeting you.

SUMMARY:Chilled Queer Ceilidh
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a relaxed afternoon of ceilidh dancing with gentle live music from an excellent queer ceilidh band. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis fun ceilidh\, led by Queer Folk\, has been created to make the experience more enjoyable for people who may not feel comfortable attending a busy and fast-paced night-time ceilidh. \nEveryone is welcome and encouraged to dance with anyone they choose\, in any role\, regardless of their gender – as you are guided through each dance. You don’t need any previous experience\, and you can come by yourself\, with a partner\, or with friends or family!. \nMore information and what to expect from the Chilled Queer Ceilidh: \n\nNo experience is necessary to participate.\nCalling (the simple dance instructions called out loud by an expert dance teacher) will not use gendered terms as descriptions.\nDances are at a gentle\, relaxed pace.\nSome of the dances involve hand-holding and contact with others but this is entirely optional.\nCapacity limited to 80 people dancing in the large hall (21m x 12m).

Don’t miss your chance to learn traditional dances from across Europe on the same night. Share the joy through movement and music\, be it Scottish Ceilidh\, Catalan or Cypriot traditional dance\, including Polca Castellera – the Catalan dance that accompanies the building of castells (human towers). You may have experienced it with team Colla Castellera d’Edinburgh who have being building castells in Scotland since 2015.

Plus\, our ongoing partnership with Glasgow European Citizens Forum\, the European Movement Scotland and Moray House School of Education and Sport\, University of Edinburgh. Special support by the Citizens Rights Project.\n\n“We believe that the tradition bearers of Scottish Ceilidh would be delighted to share the stage and the dance floor with the traditions of the other cultures that have become an integral part of contemporary Scotland. Although there are regular and popular Ceilidh nights across the country’s village halls and cultural centres\, there are hardly any events that provide space for the folk fusion of Scottish Ceilidh with other world trad dances. Launched in 2024\, our Ceilidh Plus series has been changing this\, laying the common ground for a new tradition.” Iliyana Nedkova and Wendy Timmons\, Curator and Chair of the Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland\n\nFurther details about Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland: www.tdfs.org

SUMMARY:Melvyn Robinson - Hill Drawings
DESCRIPTION:Paintings inspired by the style and landscapes of chalk hill figures. \nMelvyn Robinson (1933-2025) created a series called Hill Drawings comprising of paintings of a specific area in South Yorkshire\, regarded by the artist as their homeland; locations such as Kine Moor\, Woolley Farm\, Fox Holes\, the Hill Forts\, and Boggard Wood. In this region\, there is a legend of a black cockerel guarding a golden cradle in an underground passage\, a tale that might pre-date Christianity and Roman occupation. \nThe paintings incorporate a drawing style inspired by hill figures such as the Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset\, the Uffington White Horse in Berkshire\, and other Celtic\, Viking\, and Anglo-Saxon sources\, while depicting contemporary landscapes. Accompanied by poems and folksongs\, the Hill Drawings explore themes of generation\, aggression\, survival\, and humanity’s place within the animal kingdom. \nMelvyn Robinson\, born in Barnsley\, South Yorkshire\, in 1933\, was an artist\, musician\, and educator. He studied at Barnsley College of Art\, Manchester College of Art\, and Keele University\, where he developed a passion for integrating arts and education. Robinson taught at various institutions\, including the College of Education in Cheshire\, Hackney College\, and the London Institute\, while also teaching art and music in London schools. His first solo exhibition was held at the Acme Gallery in Covent Garden in 1978\, followed by shows at venues such as the Cooper Art Gallery\, The Air Gallery\, and The Mile End Art Pavilion. He also participated in group exhibitions with Whitechapel Community Arts and engaged in gallery education\, fostering community creativity. \nRobinson’s work\, often accompanied by poetry and music\, has been displayed in galleries including Mall Galleries\, Bankside Gallery\, and Hackney Museum. A talented musician\, he played with jazz bands like ‘The Temperance Seven’ and composed for theatre productions\, notably for Dreamer\, the 1980 musical about a family running a textile sweat shop in London’s East End. \n  \nExhibition open from Tuesday 15 September 2026 to Monday 11 January 2027. \nOpen during Cecil Sharp House opening hours  – 9am to 11pm most days. \nIn the stairwell at Cecil Sharp House. \nFree entry

SUMMARY:SiberWytch — Songs from the Northern Otherworld
DESCRIPTION:SiberWytch — Songs from the Northern Otherworld\nLive from Norway for European Folk Day \nFor European Folk Day\, SiberWytch invites audiences into a dark\, intimate and atmospheric musical journey through the old stories of the North. \nBroadcast live from Norway\, this acoustic performance brings together voice\, lyre and zither in original interpretations of Old Norse mythology\, Scandinavian folk tales and the strange beings who have haunted the Nordic imagination for centuries. Through song and storytelling\, SiberWytch reawakens the world of the völva\, the forest spirits\, the draugr\, the huldra\, the norns\, the trolls\, the dead\, the dreamers and the gods who still whisper through mountains\, rivers and winter woods. \nRather than recreating folk music as museum material\, SiberWytch approaches tradition as something living\, breathing and enchanted. Her music is rooted in folklore\, myth and memory\, but shaped through a contemporary\, personal and poetic voice. These are not simply songs about the past — they are songs about the invisible threads between landscape\, ancestry\, grief\, magic and survival. \nPerformed live with minimal instrumentation\, the concert creates an intimate ritual-like atmosphere: the ancient sound of strings\, the human voice\, and stories carried across time. The lyre and zither give the performance a raw\, archaic quality\, while SiberWytch’s interpretations open the tales to a modern audience. \nThis special live-streamed performance celebrates the richness of European folk traditions while giving voice to the shadowed\, mysterious and mythic heritage of Norway and the wider Nordic world. \nExpect songs of: \nOld Norse myth\nNordic folk tales\nMythical creatures\nWomen of magic and prophecy\nThe dead and the unseen\nForests\, fjords\, mountains and memory\nLyre\, zither and voice \nSiberWytch is the artistic project of Norwegian writer\, singer\, folklorist and performer Lena Heide-Brennand. Her work explores mythology\, folklore\, ritual\, history and the strange beauty of the old stories that refuse to disappear. \nFor European Folk Day\, SiberWytch sings from Norway — not as a reconstruction of the past\, but as an invocation of it.
