Creative Kirklees newsletter

Creative Kirklees Newsletter 19 July 2022

 

Hi everyone,

The weekend saw a fabulous start to the Sangam Festival which is now underway, bringing you a truly fabulous programme of events and activities which are being held online and at indoor and outdoor locations across Kirklees.   Do have a look what this month-long Festival has to offer.

If you’re looking for a family day out this weekend, the LBT are hosting ‘Dinosaur World Live’.  Dare to experience the dangers and delights at this roarsome interactive show for all the family!

There are some interesting exhibitions currently on show (indoors and outdoors to suit those who want to be in or out of the sun!) and there are number of very appealing workshops coming up that you might want to book on to.

We mentioned a couple of weeks ago that tickets to the 2022-23 Kirklees Concert Season, which commences in September, are now on sale.  If you are a regular concert goer you might be interested in the subscription packages that are available for organ, chamber and orchestral concerts which are available to purchase until September and will save you money!

Hope you find something to enjoy in our newsletter - have a great week and keep cool whilst you’re being creative!
