SUMMARY:Mark Rylance and George Monbiot: LIVE in Purbeck
DESCRIPTION:2.30pm Bar open, food available, artist studios, Boilerhouse Gallery and Corfe Castle Pottery open\n3:30 – 5pm: The Big Conversation\n\n5 – 7pm: Networking After-Party\n \nOscar-winning actor Mark Rylance and award winning writer and campaigner George Monbiot are coming together to host a special fundraising event for Planet Purbeck at Sandy Hill Arts – showcasing how local communities like Purbeck can influence national and global progress.\nThey will tackle “the converging political and ecological crises – and how we can solve both at once!”\nAt its heart will be a message of hope: the power of local communities to influence change nationally and globally.\nMark Rylance, Patron of Planet Purbeck, will also auction a signed photographic portrait of himself as Thomas Cromwell (from the BBC’s acclaimed Wolf Hall).\nFrom the Speakers\nMark Rylance:\n“There is a desire to build up a group of people interested in similar things such as nature conservation and climate change so there is a place they can come with concerns – and make a difference with ideas and action.\nI believe in thinking internationally but acting locally. If you change a small or local thing well enough it will affect the rest. We can lift the whole system into a better place of harmony and equilibrium.”\nGeorge Monbiot:\n“I’m greatly looking forward to it. We’ll be navigating the great political and ecological crises in which we find ourselves, and hoping to chart a path through.”\nTickets:\n£32 per person\nBook via https://planetpurbeck.org/event/mark-and-george/ ( https://planetpurbeck.org/event/mark-and-george/ )\nSandy Hill Arts is proud to support Planet Purbeck’s local work supporting nature, climate and community.\nPlease note: this event is held in our marquee so please wrap up well, for an autumnal day.
