For the first time ever, Wokingham Borough Council has partnered with Bath Spa University, House of Imagination, and Grant Associates to bring the award-winning Forest of Imagination to the borough. This unique arts project, originated in Bath in 2014, has inspired people to explore environmental issues through creativity and artistic expression.

Running until May, Wokingham Borough’s Forest of Imagination 2025 is bringing a celebration of nature-themed art and cultural experiences to people of all ages and from all walks of life.

Throughout March a vibrant range of activities will take place across the borough, offering something for everyone in the community.

Kicking off these exciting events are engaging spoken word and music sessions with award-winning poet Toby Thompson from Thursday 6 to Sunday 9 March, entitled ‘Dear Universe’ — a cosmic conversational poetic meditation on the meaning of it all. Don’t miss out — sign up now to reserve your spot for this inspiring experience!

Wokingham Borough’s Forest of Imagination 2025 will culminate in a celebratory four-day showcase at Dinton Pastures Country Park, the borough’s flagship park, from 22 to 25 May. The showcase will feature new sensory installations co-created by professional artists and schools, incorporating ideas from local community groups. There will also be participatory activities, performances and digital experiences for visitors to enjoy and deepen their connections to nature.

Forest of Imagination is free to all
