Raffaello Sanzio (1483–1520) was born and died on Good Friday. The exhibition of his work at the National Gallery last year inspired new ideas and research projects.

This Festival will explore some of our work in progress.

The seminar sessions will begin with Singing and Eurythmy every day.

The four days are conceived as a whole, but we realise that the reality of life might make it difficult for participants to attend every session.

You are welcome to come when you can.

There is no charge for these Festival events.
