Film Screening and Exhibition Celebrating Creativity in Dewsbury

WOVEN and Kirklees Year of Music teams invite you to a screening of STRUT, a short film and exhibition celebrating creativity in Dewsbury

You will be able to explore the exhibition of images taken during STRUT, a catwalk and music event that happened during the festival in June 2023. Throughout the evening we will also be screening the celebration film by Bohkego.

STRUT engaged over 5,000 people in the run up and during the day long event in front of Dewsbury town hall. As part of the full day of activities we worked with other organisations on pop up workshops, a skate park and a music stage with Year of Music. We also worked with award winning photographer Casey Orr and her Saturday Town project, a pop up photo booth in which Casey captured lots of amazing photos of people of Dewsbury. In February 2024, WOVEN team and Casey are back with an exhibition showcasing the people of Kirklees who shared their creations on the catwalk.

The exhibition will be the backdrop for workshops and activities run by Dewsbury community organisations to celebrate the Dewsbury creative community on Saturday 17 February, with a special local music programme from the Year of Music Team. Outside and inside the town hall there will be lots to do for all the family.
