We’re facing challenges that require creative solutions at a global\, national and local level. It feels like a tipping point\, but also an opportunity to reflect\, regroup and recalibrate our approach. \nWe believe that big ideas can come from anywhere. Our small market town has inspired artists\, writers\, philosophers and activists through the ages – including John Ruskin\, JMW Turner\, Margaret Llewelyn Davies (campaigner for women’s suffrage) and the Brontë sisters. \nWe’d like to see Kirkby Lonsdale celebrated for more than its abundant natural beauty and we’re excited to see what fresh ideas we can inspire and explore! Join us for a series of events – a mixture of performances\, workshops\, experiences\, conversations\, panel discussions\, films and installations – held in a variety of venues across town.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”page-illuminate-header-image” width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1763219280026{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”4984″ img_size=”full” css=””][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”page-illuminate-experience-header”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Events + Experiences” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”page-illuminate-experience”][vc_column width=”1/2″ el_class=”page-illuminate-experience-text”][vc_column_text css=””] \nPerformance\nOne of the themes of Illuminate is ‘The Creative Response’. We’ve scheduled a series of theatrical and musical performances to delight and inspire! \nWorkshop\nWith a focus on inspiring creativity\, promoting wellness and delivering inspiration\, our workshops are designed to spark fresh interests—or rekindle old ones. \nConversations\nHow can we best navigate a world in flux? Join us for a series of thought-provoking talks about our spaces\, places\, challenges and experiences. \nFilm\nOur theme is ‘Made in Britain’. Through a short\, curated film series\, we’ll explore different aspects of what it means to be British in our increasingly diverse society. \nFamily\nIlluminate promises a fortnight of fun for all the

SUMMARY:Wray Scarecrow Festival
DESCRIPTION:The longest-running Scarecrow Festival in the UK (we believe)\, is back for 2025. This year the theme is ‘Circus’ and all activities for the 10 day festival revolve around this\, culminating in the Wray Fair on Bank Holiday Monday\, 5th May. \nOnce again there are a variety of events taking place including 10k road race\, giant scarecrow parade\, car boot\, fell race\, local history walks and not forgetting the Wray Fair with entertainment and fun for all the family and\, of course\, lots of scarecrows! \nThe Festival began in 1992\, inspired by a similar event in France. It is organised each year by the ‘Scarecrow Committee’\, a small but dedicated band of local volunteers. The committee is supported by a much larger team of people who help with activities such as litter-picking\, ice-cream selling\, car parking\, programme selling\, bunting and marquee erecting\, etc. \nProgramme\nWray Scarecrow 10k Road Race\n1.15pm\, Saturday 26 April\nWray Village Hall\nFantastical Quests\n3pm\, Saturday 26 April\nMethodist Hall\, Kirkby Lonsdale\nCar Boot & Collectibles Sale\n8am\, Sunday 27 April\nWray School Field\nFell Race\n7pm\, Tuesday 29 April\nBridge End Farm Tea Rooms\, Wray\n\nLocal History Walks\n11am & 2pm\, Saturday 3 May\nGeorge & Dragon\, Wray\nGiant Scarecrow Parade\n5pm\, Saturday 3 May\nWray Village\nLocal History Walks\n11am & 2pm\, Sunday 4 May\nGeorge & Dragon\, Wray\nWray Fair\n10.45am\, Monday 5 May\nSchool Fields\, Wray\nLocal History Walks\n11am\, Monday 5 May\nGeorge & Dragon\, Wray\nKeep up to date at wrayscarecrows.wordpress.com
