D is Director for a feature film featuring Quakerism wanted

A film producer in America is very interested in producing a feature film that features Quakerism.

It is not intended as a film for Quakers but for non Quakers who may have an interest in Quakerism.  Also the film has to have an international appeal.

He has agreed to make a romantic comedy called "Romance Times Two".

The screenplay is written and if there is a film director that would be interested in reading the screenplay with a view to directing, please contact:

Celebration of Light 2014

We are now in our seventh year
Celebration of Light

 

This is the seventh year that Quakers have organised this event for the people in Wellington and beyond. It is intended as a secular event.  The Peace garden which is used as a quiet place to sit and reflect in The Quaker Meeting House Wellington ( next door to the One Shop), is transformed by greenery and hundreds of tiny candlelit lanterns. People who know about it come back year on year.  We intend it as an alternative Christmas Celebration, that of appreciating light in the darkness and the silence. ( there is little light pollution in the Quaker Peace Garden ).  Children are often overawed by the experience. We invite peopled to come and look on the same day the lights are switched on in Wellington , Nov 22. The lit garden is open on three more dates Nov 26 Dec 3 and Dec 10th Children are particularly welcome One of the features is to walk the spiral of light and perhaps reflect on the non commercial meaning of Christmas and our love for one another and all living things including our own planet.

This year Jan Copley gave a storytelling session of "The Snow Queen".  With music session from Gibby Swain.  Here are some photos:
