Holmfirth Arts Festival - One of Yorkshire's Best Small Festivals
We envision an extraordinary creative future for the Holme Valley by producing life enhancing events, inspired by the landscape and presented in alternative spaces, for everyone to participate in and enjoy.
Nestled in the Holme Valley, surrounded by the glorious Pennine Hills of West Yorkshire, Holmfirth Arts Festival celebrates creativity in the landscape by:
-
Commissioning new work and supporting diverse artists
-
Inspiring all communities to engage with the arts and their heritage
-
Caring for the environment
-
Connecting locally, regionally and internationally
Our Values underpin how we work across all aspects of our organisation including programming and how we work with each other.
-
Nurturing CREATIVITY for all, across art forms
-
CELEBRATING people and place
-
CARING for each other and our environment
-
CONNECTING people to each other and to the places they live
The Festival has an extensive community engagement programme, culminating in our Big Free Festival Weekend in mid June in alternative venues and outdoor spaces across the Holme Valley.
Holmfirth Arts & Music Ltd was formed in 2007, becoming incorporated in March 2010. The company’s major project is the annual Holmfirth Arts Festival (HAF).
