Door 20: Whitby Krampus Run

-
As we get closer to the longest night and shortest day of the year, we feel the need for a bit of mischief making. So behind door 20 we have a Whitby based arts collective who deliver mischief of the highest order. The collective was set up and run by Elaine consultant psychiatrist and Laurence a musician/graphic designer both of whom have collaborated with Mind before. In usual times they coordinate a Krampus Run which has developed to become ‘ a unique, special and well regarded event attracting collaborative partnerships with others including community groups, environmental projects & organisations promoting social inclusions and mental awareness. A big thank you to the Whitby massive.

Claire from Winter Doors would like to make a special mention about today’s production company. ‘It is not an exaggeration to say that the Lantern Company have changed my life. I was lucky enough to be at their first Halloween event in Sefton Park, which was magical and beautiful beyond belief. Since then I have learnt so much working for them. They take Community Art to a whole new level, with enchanting events and wonderful puppets. They bring light into the darkness for thousands of people.' Winter Doors are over the moon to be able to share today’s work by the Lantern Company with you.
