The next in our brilliant series of talks, this time by Dr Helen Bates:

Nikolaus Pevsner: A Life in Exile and the Leaves of Southwell
Tuesday 26 Jan, 2pm, Microsoft Teams

On the eve of Holocaust Memorial Day 2021, we reflect on the life of Nikolaus Pevsner, author of The Leaves of Southwell, the context of his Jewish heritage and the family he left behind in Nazi Germany.

We will also consider the context of his interaction with the Leaves of Southwell during these times.

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿#16

The Minster may be closed, except for worship and private prayer, but the #leavesofsouthwell project continues!

Excitingly the contractors are back on site. The floor is starting to look like its old self again, except cleaner and with concealed heat and power.

Our outreach activities also continue. It’s not too late to book onto Tuesday’s online talk here https://bit.ly/3i2L3ek with Professor Chris Brooke presenting analysis of the Chapter House medieval paint pigments.

On 26th January, the eve of Holocaust Memorial Day, Community Engagement Coordinator Dr Helen Bates offers a talk about Niklaus Pevsner, author of ‘The Leaves of Southwell’. Find out more here https://bit.ly/3ntkCPM .

The stone leaves lead us to think about the natural world. We are collecting memories, recipes, songs, poems and prayers about nature. Find out how to contribute here https://bit.ly/2Ldfmmt

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿#15

Although 2020 had its challenges for the #leavesofsouthwell project, there are plenty of wonderful community memories. In early spring, hard hat tours gave a unique opportunity to view the contractors at work on the roof.

Before lockdown, we partnered with Inspire Learning for a 'Leaf Printing' workshop and squeezed in a Family Fun Day and a conference focusing on the processes and people who made our leaves carvings.

During lockdown, a crafting competition was held with entries on display in the Minster when restrictions eased. An autumnal nature trail for families inspired children to create their own ‘Green Men’, while in December, Dr Sophie Hollinshead gave a popular online talk about winter traditions.

Our creative leaves-inspired outreach sessions with Reach Learning Disability were a great way to end 2020.

Thank you to National Lottery Heritage Fund and all those who have taken part in anything leaves-related throughout the year. We can't wait to show you what 2021 brings!

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿 #14

We love to see people enjoying their visit to the Minster. One of the key elements of the #leavesofsouthwell project funded by the @heritagefunduk is the research and design of a suite of new interpretation materials for visitors.

In production is some furniture to house films and tactile models, new printed materials – a companion guide to the site plus a complete guide to the Chapter House - and a children’s guide. In the Palace gardens, new planting will be highlighted and the new garden trail is sure to be a hit with children.

📸 show some samples and early design work.

The HOPE Wall has arrived!

This inspirational prayer installation, consisting of four six-foot-high illuminated letters spelling the word HOPE, has been touring English cathedrals for the past year, and arrived with us in Southwell today, 8 December, and will stay in place until the new year. It is situated in the High Altar sanctuary, and provides an opportunity to reflect on the hope of the gospel as we approach the end of a difficult year. Please do come and visit and take a moment to reflect in the peaceful surroundings of the Minster.

We are open daily between 11am-3pm. @englishcathedrals @thechurchofengland @visitnotts @visit.newark.sherwood @bramleynewspaper

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿 #13

Our beautiful palace gardens are much loved by the local community and visitors from farther afield. The #leavesofsouthwell project, with help from the @heritagefunduk , plans to create more public space, new planting, additional interpretation, and other surprise elements to be revealed soon.

As this is #nationaltreeweek we invited Holly and Jack, siblings from Lowes Wong Primary School, along with Canon Richard Frith, to give us a helping hand in the glorious winter sunshine to plant the first new plant - a Midland Hawthorn. A lovely native species with pink spring blossom depicted in the stone carvings of the Chapter House

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿 #12

While the Chapter House looks much the same on the outside, lots is happening inside – although it will still be a while before visitors will be able to come and see it again. Richard and the team have started the epic 1500 piece ‘jigsaw’ this week as they replace the original stone floor. Each piece was painstakingly lifted, numbered, marked on a plan, cleaned, cut to the right height and stored – all by hand - while essential work took place below ground. Here you can see the margin stones have been laid to the perimeter of each triangled section which is then infilled with the blocks. Truly a labour of love!

Thanks to @heritagefunduk and players for their support on this project
