March 2021 - BeLEAF Virtual Festival
Normally during March I would be visiting Texas and the Llano Earth Art Festival but due to the global pandemic the event could not go ahead. Mark Ford from Two Circles Design floated the idea of putting together an online festival to several of us and in a few short weeks we pulled off the impossible and put together a full 24 hours of live broadcast across the the weekend of 27/28th March. The event was called #BeLEAF2021 and included artists from all seven continents, over 150 artists and musicians, films, galleries, discussion panels, live interviews, music and much more. It truly was an epic event unlike anything the world has seen before. We were so delighted to bring together so many people across the world in a celebration of nature.
