Mapping Connections Free drop-in arts workshop: share your roots, stories and heritage through a collaborative Culture Map. A project by Bite The Apple CIC. www.bitetheapple.org.uk

Where are YOU from? Where's your family from? What places have shaped who you are? Drop in any time and add your story to a large, collaborative artwork mapping the cultural roots of Shepton Mallet — from just down the road to the other side of the world. Whether your family has been in Somerset for generations or you arrived last year, whether your roots are in Poland, Portugal, Punjab or Pilton — everyone has a connection worth celebrating. Come and put yours on the map. Make something, share a story, and take home your own personal culture map too. No experience needed. Just turn up. All ages welcome (children must bring an adult with them!). The finished culture map will be exhibited at Somerset Art Weeks Festival 2026 and permanently displayed in Shepton Mallet.

All ages welcome @Shepton Mallet Library. 11:30 – 3:00pm.

Sunday 28 June (part of MidSummerFest in Shepton Mallet)
