We are delighted to announce that Dr Anna Burton and Connie Hamilton have been successful in their applications to the BARS\/Wordsworth Trust Early Career Fellowship programme. Each will spend a month in residence at Wordsworth Trust at Grasmere<\/a> over the next few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Focused on the Fellow\u2019s own research interests, the residency provides an opportunity for them to become familiar with existing audience engagement work (both onsite and offsite, gaining experience of duties that are audience related) and to create a plan for an activity that will engage new audiences.  This can be for an audience of the Fellow\u2019s choice and will use the collections to stimulate an interest and develop understanding of the poet\u2019s work.  For more information on the Fellowship, please follow this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna has already begun her time in Grasmere and is researching an interest in the planting and caretaking of trees in the Lake District 200 years ago and the present day. Jeff Cowton, Principal Curator and Head of Learning, writes: \u2018It is wonderful to welcome Anna and to explore with her how attitudes from the past (and especially Wordsworth\u2019s interest in trees) will lead to interpretation that helps us examine our attitudes to trees today\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna is pleased to have this opportunity: \u2018It is particularly exciting to be exploring all things tree-related in the collection at the Jerwood Centre, and to have the opportunity to visit tree specimens and spaces of Wordsworthian interest in and around Dove Cottage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
