Welcome to the New Year, where we had hoped to be mostly free of covid by now. But it was not to be. Some teams have stopped practices again, some events are being cancelled again, it’s all very deja vu. So do come along to one – or all – of our online events, we would love to see you.
Online FedTalks & Workshops
Join us at a free online event, live over Zoom, optional donations.
January 2022
Talk – “Traditional Treasures” – Gill & Barry Goodman – Sat 22nd Jan 17:00-18:30. The magic, mystery and madness of English traditional customs in story, songs and images, including: Olney Pancake Race, Tavistock Goosey Fair, Helston Flora Day, Whitby Penny Hedge, Haxey Hood Game, House & Apple Tree Wassailing. Follows on from their previous talk “Good Morning, Lords and Ladies”.
The latest and correct list is at: www.morrisfed.org.uk/events/. More online events are coming in February & March.
How to access an online event: Register for an event, and a couple of days before we’ll email you a Zoom link to access it. We are also recording most of our events, which will appear on the MF YouTube channel when they have been processed.
EFDSS Library Lectures (£5 each): including one on morris dancing: ‘All together in the dance’ – Matt Simons – Wed 20th Apr 19:30-21:00 – Alec Hunter (1899-1958), artist, textile designer and Morris dancer. Raised on Arts and Crafts precepts, he perceived Morris dancing as a highly developed form of English ‘social art’, an apt panacea for an age of disenchantment and division.

Bookings are open: MF teams please contact us using our contact form and selecting the drop down for ‘Events’.
