Beyond Skin: 100 Project at Mount Stewart

27th September 2022

On 15th October at Mount Stewart we will be celebrating the burying of the '100 Book’ in a capsule on the grounds. The book contains 100 pages of unique art (poetry, stories, painting, photography, embroidery and more) created by 100 women. The book was created in the height of lockdown and centres on themes of belonging and connection to the earth. It was crafted by a local artist Wilhelmina Peace by handmade, sustainable and ethical materials and methods.

The ‘100 Book’ will be buried in the luscious surrounds of Mount Stewart, where it will stay unopened for 100 years in a time capsule.

The free for entry day will include talks, writing workshops, music, dance workshops, Baby yoga and an artisan market all performed/hosted by women from all corners of the community and will be open to everyone to join, connect, learn and experience the array of cultures present in Northern Ireland.
