We need workshop facilitators, dancers, musicians, poets .......

I N T E R W O V E N is a part of the wider WOVEN textile festival, supported by Kirklees Council, and brings communities together through music and storytelling, to celebrate our shared experiences of the textile industry, past and present, in Dewsbury and across Kirklees.

I N T E R W O V E N in Dewsbury will include an exhibition in the town centre from 30th April to 15th May and an evening of live performance at Dewsbury Minster on Friday 6th May. The new musical piece, inspired by stories of the North Kirklees textile industry, will be performed by Qawwali musicians, a brass band and folk singers, and they will be joined by local poet Ahmad Lunat reading a new piece of poetry, also inspired by the local stories.

What We Need
In addition to the above, we would also like to hold workshops and talks in the exhibition space, and add additional elements to the evening of live performance on Friday 6th May.
