exhibition at the Creative Arts Hub in Mirfield. Pop along and see the
New Horizons exhibition which explores a variety of themes explored by
the artists.
Do you

period in December that you would like help with promoting? Kirklees
Council are putting together a brochure with events and activities
happening around Kirklees. If you would like your activity to be included,
