WOVEN in Kirklees

WOVEN is a biennial festival that began in 2019, with the next big events happening from 3rd June to 9th July 2023.

Our Craftanoon class decorated MKG giant metal head in our HAGG this year to celebrate!

It is initiated and funded by Kirklees Council, but is owned by everyone, including community groups, textile businesses, cultural and educational organisations, artists and heritage sites across the district.

WOVEN’s theme is generations of innovators, connecting a strong heritage with today’s innovative developments in industry, university research, a strong arts and crafts scene and the creative expression of the district’s rich and diverse communities.
