Wednesday, January 8th

Happy New Year and welcome to our first
newsletter of 2025! We look forward to sharing with you the many
events and activities taking place across Kirklees over the year. If
you have creative events, news or opportunities to share, add them to
Creative
Kirklees and we can include them in our
newsletter.
To start the year off you
may be looking for a new activity or just a way to get through the
winter - take a look at the courses and workshops
starting up in January. Or perhaps you want a new opportunity in
2025, in which case, keep on eye on the Opportunities
regularly added to Creative Kirklees.
Kirklees
Libraries have 2 great opportunities for creative
practitioners and have extended the deadline to 13 January. Our Cultural Heart - Engagement Activity
and MakerSpace Creative Engagement.
The
Culture Collective are inviting creative artists and
organisations based in Kirklees to showcase their work at a special
Creativity in Kirklees day on 30 January. Find out more and how to
get involved at Culture Collective - Creativity in
Kirklees.
