A Fond Farewell from Hebden Bridge Arts. After much thought (and many cups of tea), we’ve made the heartfelt decision to bring Hebden Bridge Arts to a close. We know this may come as a surprise, and there’s a real sadness in saying goodbye. Despite exploring every possible route, the challenges of reduced funding and a much smaller team have led us to the conclusion that it’s time to step back. That said - we’re so proud of everything we created together. From joyful festivals to community-led creativity, the spirit of Hebden Bridge Arts will live on in the valley (and in all of you). 💛 We’d love to hear from you... If Hebden Bridge Arts has ever made you smile, moved you, inspired you - or simply brought you joy - please share your favourite memory or moment in the comments below or tag us. Let’s fill this space with the creativity and community that defined everything we did. Thank you for being part of the magic. With love and deep appreciation, The Hebden Bridge Arts Team (fb)

We're Looking For Our Next Chair of Trustees. Deadline Approaching - Could It Be You? For nearly 30 years, we’ve been proud to be part of Calderdale’s vibrant creative community, co-creating projects that celebrate who we are and where we live. From the magic of 'The Man Who Planted Trees' during Calderdale’s Year of Culture, to the deeply rooted 'Engaging Neighbourhoods' programme, we’ve seen how art can connect, inspire, and transform lives. Now, we’re stepping into a new chapter — exploring fresh ways to connect people, place, and purpose through the arts, and we’re looking for someone passionate about change to help lead that journey. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Download the recruitment pack at www.hebdenbridgearts.co.uk Apply by Wednesday 30 April at noon.
