Hotch Potch's Fairy Door Trail
Discover fairies and piskies at Heartlands in Pool
During the covid pandemic we created three installations, each with their own freely accessible online stories of fairies and piskies.
You can still find many of the fairy doors in the Diaspora Gardens at Heartlands, and the Piskie Palace (an engine house shaped fairy house, that was on display in Heartlands Museum before it closed), can be found at Redruth Library.
Our busy world comes to a halt and suddenly we find ourselves slowing down, breathing, noticing the small things, appreciating the birdsong and spiders web. The Diaspora Gardens fairy trail is for families and children of all ages to enjoy safely and in their own time.
Formally funded by FEAST as part of The Tiny Audio Tour which was originally created during the pandemic in response to the lockdown's we were all dealing with. The stories reflect that time and allowed the local community to access an arts activity from Hotch Potch during that challenging time.
How many of the remaining fairy doors can you find?
