​Hebden Bridge Arts aims to ignite the creativity in everyone. We work with communities and inspiring artists to create exciting art informed by the environment and the climate emergency.

We bring together brilliant artists of all disciplines with grassroots organisations that work with under-served, under-represented communities and the public. We produce highly ambitious, artistically exciting, socially engaged work, and support the development of community confidence and great art through mentoring and co-creation.

You can connect with us as a maker, co-creator, workshop participant, volunteer, audience member, and visitor. We create and share visual art, film, written and spoken word, theatre, dance, and music, and present our/your creativity to the world.

THE MAN WHO PLANTED TREES: 2024

October 2023-September 2024 was focussed on delivery of 'The Man Who Planted Trees': A Community Arts Project, presented as part of Calderdaleʼs Year of Culture (CULTUREDALE) in July 2024.
​
Inspired by a mid-century French short story by Jean Giono, our community arts programme included a brand new play, guided nature walks, creative workshops, community creative days, an artist's lecture event, two community volunteering days and three art exhibitions - all delivered by an amazing team of artist facilitators, volunteers and core team.


​A film of the stage play, together with an education pack aimed at Key Stage 2 pupils (those aged 7-11 years old and in school years 3-6), has been created and shared with Calderdale's 84 primary schools, providing an opportunity to up to 10,000 junior aged pupils in Calderdale to engage with our stage adaptation of the book and the messages shared within our performance.
