Kite Fest:
The day spring came to town Summer is nearly with us, and it’s time to say goodbye to spring. But before we do, let’s look back to the start of the season, when St Ives folk gathered on the Island to enjoy the March sunshine, battle blustery winds, and launch multicoloured kites into a perfect blue sky. Flight Day was the culmination of Kite Fest, which began with community workshops led by expert kite-makers and artists. St Ives Town Council Cultural Services Manager Emma Gibson said: “It was simply wonderful seeing so many people having fun flying their kites on the Island. Flight Day was a perfect way to ‘bring in the spring’ together, and we’d like to make Kite Fest an annual event. Thanks go to everyone who participated, and our creative collaborators Joanna Mayes, Billy Wynter, Barnoon Workshop and Jo McIntosh.”
