Haunting Ashton Court at Bookhaus

A event held at Bookhaus on Wednesday 14th June. The event starts at 18:00.


Join us for an evening of performance and lively discussion to celebrate the launch of Haunting Ashton Court: A Creative Handbook for Collective History-Making. The evening will include performances from a company of young Bristolians responding to the gaps and silences in the official archives of Ashton Court Estate, alongside new commissions from acclaimed Bristol-based artists Zakiya McKenzie, Saili Katebe and Tom Marshman. This will be followed by a panel Q&A between these artists and the young company, chaired by writer and academic Samantha Walton.

This collection includes new writing commissions from Zakiya McKenzie, Tom Marshman and Saili Katebe responding to the gaps in the Ashton Court archives, a script from a live performance by young Bristolians; and a creative toolkit to help you make your own journeys into collective history-making, edited by Elinor Lower and Jack Young.
