In recent years Ali has been developing her practice as an artist in her own right.
She creates transformational walking arts projects with diverse communities.
During her 120 mile walk around the Bay a brilliant opportunity today for artist Ali Pretty to meet the man who inspired her. Artistic director of acclaimed arts innovators Welfare State International John Fox lives at Baycliff #waysaroundthebay#beachofdreams23#morecambebay
As we bid farewell to our Director @emwilco we're now looking for a dynamic & enthusiastic new #Director. This is a fantastic opportunity to lead a nationally significant cultural programme, building on our successes and impact to date. https://t.co/afwYUu3NGp

🥾The Bay Lines Beach of Dreams team have passed the halfway stage of their walk around Morecambe Bay. Lots of inspiration for the 120 silk pennants - one for each mile - that will result. #beachofdreams23#waysaroundthebay

The Costa Rican Kinetika travellers have been busy over the weekend hosting the first of the workshops with community groups along the way including CASEM & the St Luis Community Centre in Puntarenas in #Monteverde!
#CostaRica#walkingarts
The explorers finished the week with a very special gathering (#Encuentro) in Costa de Pajaros where communities were invited to come together, complete a design and create batik flags.
#Workshops#community@WorldTrailsNet@Alipretty
This will culminate in a day-long encuentro (gathering) on the coast, where all the communities are invited, to complete a design and create coloured Batik flags.

Along the way, Kinetika artists will be engaging with communities along the route and offering a series of drawing workshops to design flags that represent each unique community, as well as the environmental and social relationships that the trail reinforces.
