A weekend of creativity at Boston Castle

A weekend of creativity at Boston Castle

Join us for a weekend of creative fun at Boston Castle with our creative Green and Growing project. Over two days, we invite you to immerse yourself in creativity, nature and heritage through creative  writing, walking and sketching/drawing. All are welcome. No expectation of creative output. No experience necessary!
