![What a weekend 😅 We would need about an hour to feature everyone who contributed to this year’s huge Threads programme, but here’s a small portion.
Thank you to every stallholder, workshop tutor, mill host and visitor for being part of the Festival, along with our speakers Michele Carragher, Jessie Cutts, Hannah Lamb and the 62 Group artists.
We’d like to give a special mention to @unfolded_pci student collective from @universityofleeds for their incredible contributions. Their site responsive performances and short films gave the Mills’ heritage and workers’ stories a presence throughout the weekend.
Stay tuned for the Me-made Competition entries!
