We have
exciting news! The Creative Development Team have been designing a
new Creative Kirklees website which will be launched in September to
promote all things creative happening locally.
The new
look site will make it even easier for you to use and for us to
share and shout about all the amazing arts and cultural activity going on
in Kirklees.
To
continue to receive our fabulous newsletter you will need to go to the
new website to resubscribe before 1 September 2022. Take a look
around the new site here and
subscribe to the newsletter when the subscription screen pops up (might

If you
are a business, organisation or individual who normally adds content and
have events going on from September onwards, you’ll need to add them to
the new website. To do this check
whether your profile is on the new site, register
if you’ve not done so already and add or update your business/group
profile. You can check out the User
Guide for help.
Remember
- to continue to receive our newsletter and keep in tune with creative
news, sign up for our new newsletter when the pop up screen appears here. To
update or add your business/group profile sign in or register now.
Meanwhile,
