Capture the magic of murmuration's above Staveley using charcoal and ink with Jo Garlick.

Starling murmurations are one of nature’s most extraordinary spectacles. Discover the secrets behind these mesmerising and mysterious displays and create your own interpretation of the skies above Staveley using charcoal and ink with local artist Jo Garlick from Artison.
