Spirits in the Wild: Folklore Tales from North Yorkshire


Saturday 1 August - Sunday 13 September

North Yorkshire’s tales of superstition and mystery have conjured the imagination of artist collective H.A.G.S as they reinterpret local historic folklore through a feminist lens.

Responding to legends such as Danby’s shapeshifting Moorland Witches, North Sea Selkies and the alluring merman of Skinningrove, H.A.G.S inspire us to consider what these myths can offer us today.
H.A.G.S is comprised of artists:

  • Helen Guant
  • Alice Grey
  • Glynis Johnson
  • Sara Henry
