Your Utopia: Lessons from the Fairies
Fairy Houses for Summer 2020 Invitational
Returning to Highfield Hall & Gardens for summer 2020 – “Lessons from the Fairies” allows us to imagine what nature spirits can teach us about our lives, and the positive impact we can have on the earth. Your Fairy House Utopia can take many forms and we welcome proposals from individuals, couples, or families.
We have room for up to 30 creations on the property and looking for originality, choice of materials, site sensitivity, a sketch, and a written description about what makes your fairy house Utopian in character.
In considering your design please use natural or upcycled materials suitable to the outdoors, so that a little rain or wind won’t damage the integrity of your piece of Utopia.
We are taking submissions now. Please submit proposals to staff@highfieldhall.org.
DATES OF NOTE
JUNE 1 DEADLINE EXTENDED to JUNE 20th to submit your theme with a description of materials and estimated dimensions. Please provide a sketch if possible. If you require special mounting materials please let me know.
