Festival walks will showcase town's culture and history
The Cornishman
|July 10, 2025
DOZENS of walks are being held around St Ives as part of this year's September Festival.
Among 36 of the explorations, author Matilda Webb will be offering four opportunities to take A Walk Around Alfred Wallis’s St Ives.
Matilda's biography of the painter, Alfred Wallis: Child Pauper To Artistic Luminary, was launched at St Ives Museum earlier this year.
The 90-minute strolls will take walkers past the places where Wallis lived and worked, to see the views and subjects that inspired some of his paintings, and the graveyard where he was buried in 1942.
Matilda will also be in conversation with Ethan Carney from the St Ives Archive in an event called Illuminating Alfred Wallis (1855-1942) at Porthmeor Studios on Wednesday, September 24, at 7.30pm.
Nicky Ferguson will also be leading walks on all 15 days of the festival, which continue the artistic theme.
