Our Creative Director: Amanda Mayflower
"Visit for a while, and you'll be just as likely to meet a unicorn as a hobby horse, and take a ride to Never Never Land on the back of a Luck Dragon."
An educator by training and folklore enthusiast by birthright, Amanda Mayflower has opened the doors of her imagination for all ages.
As creative director of Four Seasons Entertainment, she manages a troupe of fairies, a pair of rabbits and a whole lot of hobby horses at harvest time.
Amanda's interest and works are linked to seasonal changes, traditional American Folklore and the spirit of magic. Her song and storytelling is an embodied and improvisational practice.
With the offering of the Flint Hills Fairies, ICT Easter Bunny, Hobby Horse Rodeo and Santa's Workshop, Mayflower helps awaken a narrative about customs and lore from around the world.
Her work is imbued with the zeitgeist of moving constellations and the bending of time. Step through the door, and immerse yourself in a world of pure imagination.
