The Whitworth’s 2026 Community Day brings together the spirit of Universally Manchester Festival and Refugee Week celebrations
About this Event

The day showcases the creativity, resilience and joy shared across our partnerships. From the energy of Whitworth Young Contemporaries, to the creative inclusivity of Venture Arts, the cultural vibrancy of Afrocats, the reflective strength of Still Parents, and the intergenerational connections nurtured through our Age‑Friendly Programme.

Together with many more collaborators, the Whitworth opens its doors to honour stories of belonging, creativity and community power. Through workshops, performances, exhibitions and shared conversations, the event highlights how art can build bridges, amplify unheard voices and celebrate Manchester’s diverse communities.
