Inspired by Dartmoor
Thursday, 5 December 2024 at 10:00 - 15:00
Wednesday 5 December - Sunday 30th March
A free exhibition highlighting how Dartmoor’s wild places have inspired former prisoners and people going through addiction recovery is being shown at Princetown Visitor Centre.
Curated by Rite to Freedom, the exhibition brings together a range of works including collaborations with professional filmmakers, artists, photographers, musicians, composers, poets and writers.
Presented in collaboration with Dartmoor National Park Authority, English Heritage and a number of arts organisations and communities, Rite to Freedom's exhibition centres around the importance of creativity and the natural world, and how both support people’s mental health and wellbeing.
Established in 2008, Rite to Freedom has supported hundreds of people through the criminal justice system as well as those in long-term addiction recovery.
As well as celebrating the success of Rite to Freedom’s charitable work, the exhibition also marks the beginning of their next venture as a social enterprise supporting health and wellbeing across the Dartmoor community – complete with a new name: ‘Creative Pathways. Nature. Arts. wellbeing.’
