What people said about Culture Collective’s last event:
“Culture Collective and days like these are really significant and important for heritage and culture and what Kirklees is trying to achieve through culture. Culture is the driving force for change.”
Qaisar Mahmood, CEO Radio Sangam
“Culture Collective and what they are doing today is something that I’ve been yearning to be in the room with for a long time. This is phenomenal. The energy in the room, the way people are engaging, the projects that are happening and the level of the projects are exactly what Huddersfield needs.”
Benaiah Matheson, artist and designer
“Today has been a show of how many people there are in this sector, how diverse they are in their artforms and their ages and what they’re doing and where they want to go. There’s so much to be proud of in Kirklees and we should champion that.”
Becky Dash, CEO Lawrence Batley Theatre
“The creative sector within Kirklees is an absolutely thriving sector. There’s lots of people employed in it, the financial value of the sector is huge. It’s the fastest growing sector in Kirklees.
