The Fire Pit

Norse Creation Story & Prop Making Activity

As part of the Nithraid Festival 2020 in Dumfries, PAMIS (promoting a more inclusive society) have worked in collaboration with The Stove Network and Simon Lidwell of Wordsmithcrafts to develop a multisensory story about the Viking creation myth. Due to current lockdown restrictions, it was decided that the festival will go online, and we will therefore be presenting the story as a video.
