WOVEN is a biennial festival that first took place in June 2019, with the next big event due in June 2021.
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.

Whilst a big festival event will happen in June every other year, there will also be long term projects and smaller events happening in between.
