Claire Hewitt Honeybee Hut

Storytelling Gathering with Claire Hewitt

Part of Stepping Into the Mythic Exhibition

29 March 2025

Join exhibiting artist and storyteller Claire Hewitt as she tells the stories of the imagery present within her exhibition Stepping into the Mythic. Please note this event is designed for adults. 

Claire Hewitt is a professional storyteller and artist living in Highland Perthshire. For forty years she has been involved in gathering and inspiring local communities’ connection to their natural environment, and to one another, through the arts. For the last 20 years this has been through the carrying stream of the oral tradition, rooted in the landscape of Perthshire. She comments:

“My own artistic practice as a Storyteller has been enriched, nourished and supported manifold by this incredibly diverse community, human and wild, which stretches itself along the River Tay.”

Her practice over the years has developed from a Fine Artist & Community Artist, training as an Art Therapist, to working as a freelance Storyteller in Scotland and overseas in Africa, Japan, Finland, France, Norway, Estonia, Eastern Europe, Dubai, and India.  Claire has been involved in projects with Historic Scotland; Pamis Sensory Storytelling Resources; RSGS; Plant-life Scotland; Scottish Poetry Library and Storytelling Centre; Scottish Forestry Commission and many Community based Storytelling projects, keeping the Oral tradition a living tradition; ‘Eye to eye, mind to mind and heart to heart.’
