The award-winning, free-to-attend event invites adults and schoolchildren to come along and experience a 'Biodiversity Ring: A million small acts', inviting everyone to think on behalf of the planet to make a difference every day. Forest of Imagination highlights the importance of nature connection and our collective imagination.
Forest of Imagination is a partnership between Grant Associates, Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios, House of Imagination, and Bath Spa University, alongside the wider creative, cultural, and educational community of Bath.
Bath Spa University is playing its part again this year, with staff, students and alumni all invited to be involved in the creative, cultural ecology of the forest. The University’s partner, the Holburne Museum and Gardens, also plays host to this year’s event.
Deputy Vice Chancellor of Bath Spa University, Professor Georgina Andrews introduced this year’s Forest of Imagination at the University’s Locksbrook Campus on the evening of Wednesday 5 June with the RSA team. Georgina celebrated the importance of nature and imagination in all our lives, and the role of creativity at Bath Spa University.

The fun-filled Forest of Imagination 2024 will be beautifully formed as always, with high quality creative interventions. The event reimagines spaces inside and outside the museum, transformed into a ring of playful, nature-inspired arts experiences, offering visitors the chance to immerse themselves in interactive multi-sensory interventions by local and international artists.
The festivities will also pop up at Bath Royal Literary Scientific Institution (BRLSI) in Queen’s Square
The first ever Forest of Imagination event took place in 2014 and every year since then, various locations across the city have hosted the event, including Queen Square, Bath Abbey, Bushey Norwood, and the Holburne Museum and Sydney Gardens.
