OPEN SPACE 70: 2023

Open Space 70 was our environmental arts project & festival, made by and for the people of Calderdale. ​
Between March and July 2023 community groups, individuals, environmental experts, professional artists, and first-time makers worked together to create art for Open Space 70 across all genres, through attendance at workshops, courses, as part of project groups and through independent creativity.  

​From Thursday 13 to Sunday 16 July a celebration of 70 exhibitions and installations, happenings, performances, workshops, talks and walks took place at spaces in and around Hebden Bridge, including a weekend Arts Trail and a free programme of family friendly events. Watch the video below for a taster of what we collectively achieved.
