Annebella Pollen and Carolyn Mears
Dr. Annebella Pollen is Principal Lecturer and an AHRC (Arts and
Humanities Research Council) Research Fellow in the History of Art and
Design at the University of Brighton; where she is actively exploring
the role of art, craft, design and dress as forms of resistance, radical
educational strategies and utopian ideals in progressive interwar reform
organisations including The Kindred of the Kibbo Kift, The Woodcraft
Folk and The Order of Woodcraft Chivalry. From this Inter-War mix and
and their related milieux emerged other organisations, such as Braziers
Park School of Integrative Social Research in Oxfordshire, Grith Fyrd,
and - from Grith Fyrd - the Q Camps Committee and ultimately, the
post-war Planned Environment Therapy Trust.
Dr. Carolyn Mears is a Research Fellow in the University of Denver's
