In Hastings for the Jack in the Green festival where I danced with my Morris side, Black Annis! A lovely weekend of Morris dancing finishing with the procession up to the castle where the Jack is slain to bring summer back.

jesters, clowns, chimney sweeps and musicians. Modern celebrations often feature Morris dancers and green clad revellers. May Day marks the time to celebrate that winter is finally over (in this hemisphere at least) and plants are sprouting!

Here’s my latest the #GreenMan wall sculpture, fresh out of the kiln at The Chicken Run Studio, #Eynsham, #Oxfordshire.
I’ll add wires & then he’ll be ready to hang in somebody’s garden somewhere. Yours, perhaps?
Thanks 🙏 to my chum Alison for the technical assistance, the laughs, and the yummy apple cake.

What to do on a miserable day? Hang out with a chum in her #homepotterystudio. While I glaze my new #GreenMan sculpture, Alison paints her goldfinches.
I pray that the #KilnGods will be kind...🙏

New blog post: Hastings Jack in the Green 2025

Yesterday, I followed the magical procession of Bristol 'Jack in the Green'; a beautiful May Day tradition celebrating the return of summer. Dressed in leaves and flowers, Jack is paraded through the streets of the city by attendants, dancers and musicians, reviving a custom that dates back to the 18th century. Originally part of the chimney sweeps' May Day festivities, Jack symbolises fertility, growth, and the power of nature. Such a vibrant, joyful way to welcome the green of the summer season. Bristol knows how to keep tradition alive!
Keep an eye on my blog for more about Jack in the Green this week.
Have you ever seen Jack in the Green?

Happy May Day! This is hand-pulled lino block print of the Jack-in-the-Green (or Jack o’ the Green) an English folk tradition for May Day. Wearing a conical or pyramidal wicker or wooden frame covered in foliage so as to conceal the wearer, the Jack-in-the-Green leads a May Day procession, dancing often with musicians and other figures. 🧵1/2

A few photos from yesterday's Jack in the Green festival in Hastings
-
These are pictures I took at the Jack in the Green fest, held every Beltane in Hastings. These are from 13 years ago, when I lived in London. I particularly like this portrait of the inimitable Simon Costin of the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic in Cornwall. This was a magical time and place, when I haunted folky events. It may never again be safe for me to be in crowds like this. I’m mourning that loss this Beltane. #Beltane #hastings #JackInTheGreen #Festivals #nostalgia #Pagan #MayDay #2010

Thinking of making the trip over to Hastings on Monday for the Jack in the Green festival. Is anyone else going to be there?
