Creative Kirklees newsletter

Detailing creative events coming up in Kirklees:

Creative Kirklees Newsletter 7 June 2022

 

Hello everyone – we hope you found something fun and creative to do over the bank holiday and that those of you who joined in the Platinum Jubilee celebrations all had a super time!  If you missed out on the celebrations, there’s still one more concert coming up this Saturday afternoon with Denby Dale Ladies Choir at Denby Dale Pie Hall - complete with afternoon tea!  Scrolling down our newsletter, you’ll find lots more ideas to keep you creative!

See what the artists and arts organisations are getting up to at Temporary Contemporary at the Piazza Shopping Centre in Huddersfield, including Give A Few Words who are “popping up” there this week, bringing a series of exciting events including letter writing workshops, arts and crafts, coffee and chat and more.

Vinyl Tap have live music in store on Friday afternoon with Hull band ‘Life’, and celebrating their 70th anniversary in 2020, the Audrey Spencer School of Dance had to postpone their event until this year and they have a fabulous Anniversary Show lined up at the LBT this weekend.  Also great to see Huddersfield Jazz back presenting Snake Davis and Gareth Moulton at the Smile Bar at Aspley on Sunday afternoon.  Just a few ideas for you!

There are also some amazing exhibitions currently on show with more coming soon and there are lots of creative workshops and classes currently around to join!

Finally, you will see the Make it Happen Summer School amongst our opportunities.  Ten creatives are being sought to join Creative Scene, Leeds Arts University and renowned outdoor artists and producers Periplum for a hands-on course to develop skills in making outdoor arts events and community co-creation.  Please share this fabulous opportunity with anyone you think might be interested.

Enjoy your week!
