SUMMARY:ONLINE: AI – Terrifying Tech or Conduit to Creativity at Huddersfield Literature Festival
DESCRIPTION:Does AI pose a grave danger to creative people and projects or is it a useful tool to be harnessed?  \nWhile some will champion AI for its innovative applications in multiple fields of creativity\, others fear that it will negatively impact the income and careers of those working in creative spheres.   \nThere’s no doubt that some artists are finding new ways to push the boundaries of creativity through AI technology. But where does this leave more traditional artisans – and how significant are environmental concerns around the use of AI?  \nWOVEN’s Nat Walton chairs AI – Terrifying Tech or Conduit to Creativity online discussion at this year’s Huddersfield Literature Festival panellists including Fiona Goh\, from British Arts Festivals Association (BAFA). Dr Nik Taylor and Dr Rupert Till from University of Huddersfield. \nFind out more and BOOK TICKETS here \nNote: this event will take place online as a Zoom webinar.

SUMMARY:The Cultures of Climate Arts Trail
DESCRIPTION:Journey across The Cultures of Climate Art trail\, to Dewsbury and Huddersfield – to find Recycling En Masse – its heritage\, activism\, and future. \n‘Recycling En Masse’ is a collection of printed reproductions of paintings and photographs depicting citizens of Dewsbury\, with views of Textile Mills. \nThese images are part of the site-specific ‘Cultures of Climate Art Trail’\, between Huddersfield and Dewsbury\, exploring the role of art as an asset for social and environmental sustainability. \nVisitors are invited to consider the current climate crisis\, against the backdrop of the 19c and 20c production of Shoddy and Mungo – the earliest and largest example of recycled textile fabric. Instead of celebrating the industrial ingenuity\, or scale of recycling\, the artworks from the Kirklees Collections help shine a light on the social contexts of the industry. \nThe textile installation ‘Soar Away’ (2022) by New Zealand-based artist Deborah Rundle tells the story the activism of Ann Ellis\, and the Hillstone Fibre Arts exhibition using yarn from Huddersfield company Iinouiio Recycled Textiles are also part of the trail. \nAn online discussion between Dr Janine Sykes and artist Deborah Rundle is to take place during the Arts Trail /WOVEN Festival – stay tuned for more information. \nTHE TRAIL LOCATIONS: \n-Recycle En Masse Toast House Café\, University of Huddersfield Queen St South Annexe\, Huddersfield HD1 3DR 10am-3pm Mon-Thurs\, 10am-2:30pm Fri. \n-Soar Away Deborah Rundle\, Dewsbury Town Hall\, Wakefield Old Rd\, Dewsbury WF12 8DG\, 9am–5pm Mon-Fri \n–Hillstone Fibre Arts Exhibition the Arcade Pop-Up\, 25 Princess of Wales Precinct\, Dewsbury WF13 1NH 10am-2pm Wed–Fri \n

SUMMARY:Yarn Bombing at Roberttown Village
DESCRIPTION:Roberttown craft and chatter are a community group who have enjoyed working together to create this wonderful installation at Roberttown Village – described as a ‘close knit community’. \nLook out for a flock of sheep decorating railings\, a nod to the village’s heritage of sitting within the Heavy Woollen District. The sheep have been lovingly made from both yarn donated to our group and samples that have been repurposed. \nEach one is different in shape\, size\, colour and texture\, representing the differences between us all but that together they form a powerful flock. \nThere are also 12 bollard toppers to be found\, depicting various aspects of this colourful village and it’s community.

SUMMARY:Flower Bombing in the Village - Meltham style
DESCRIPTION:Come and see celebrate the spectacular flower bombing of our Village using all forms of yarn and fabric crafts! \nThe Meltham Textiles Group is planning a spectacular floral inspired textile installation for the WOVEN in Kirklees festival\, to be displayed across Meltham throughout June. We intend to decorate the whole village with handmade flowers using all fabric and yarn techniques. \nWe will be bringing the community together with a series of workshops to create the hundreds of flowers to realise our vision. This will result in beautiful floral displays that will be hung from lamp posts\, in shops and across our village. This is the second project we have undertaken as a village\, successfully creating the Meltham Community Quilt last year which will be on display during the event too. \nMeltham is a hidden gem\, nestled between Holmfirth and Slaithwaite. If you haven’t visited our lovely village before it is easy to find us\, just hop on the 324 bus from Huddersfield. \nThis event is part of the WOVEN community programme.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk - Kirstie Macleod - The Red Dress Project
DESCRIPTION:Join Artist Kirstie Macleod for an introduction to The Red Dress project. \nKirstie has been an artist for over 20 years and has dedicated 16 of those to The Red Dress project. What started as a sketch in 2009 evolved into a global collaboration\, connecting thousands worldwide. Growing up across diverse cultures\, Kirstie’s early years were infused with colour\, language\, and contrasting experiences. Art became her way of understanding her journey\, leading her to a BA in Textile Design and an MA in Visual Language & Performance. \nEmbroidery soon captivated her with its rich history and potential for expression. A pivotal moment came in 2002 in southern India\, where she stitched alongside Karnatakan Lambani women\, sharing a profound\, wordless connection. The Red Dress began as an exploration of identity\, transforming into a symbol of unity and voice. Amidst global challenges\, its message of collaboration and compassion resonates stronger than ever\, inspiring hope for a more connected and empathetic world. \nFree but booking required.
