Tribe of Doris' last ever appearance at Blackdown Hills

THE Tribe of Doris returns to the Blackdown Hills to run the event for the final time from August 9-14.

It features a line-up of workshops and performances, featuring teachers from across the globe and has been hailed as the world's most vibrant intercultural exchange of acoustic music, dance, song and ceremony, with a mission to take these skills to a wider audience.

Co-founder Siobhan Kierans said: “20 years later we have achieved what we set out to do. We will continue to provide intercultural arts events, but this summer school will be the last.”

The climax will be a spectacular showcase on the final day, when the many workshop groups come together to present what they have learnt in a series of vibrant performances.
