Storyteller Heather Taylor, from local community enterprise organisation Commingled, is working with the Kirkcudbright Book Week Society on an exciting educational project, supported by a grant to the Society from the National Lottery Community Fund.
The collaboration between Kirkcudbright Book Week and Commingled began after the success of a multi-sensory storytelling event held on World Book Day in March 2024, part of Kirkcudbright Book Week.
Commingled’s Creative Director Heather adapted the latest children’s book by Susi Briggs, a renowned Author and Scots Scriever, to create an engaging experience.
The development of this initiative into something larger was made possible thanks to funding from the National Lottery Community Fund to Kirkcudbright Book Week Society, which was granted to commission Commingled to explore how engagement and participation could be increased for Kirkcudbright Book Week, particularly focusing on developing inclusion and accessibility within the community.
