Football Freddie

A warm and witty show for children and their grown-ups about football, team-work and the joy of joining in.

Freddie Farren is a little girl who loves football but is too nervous to join in a game in her local park. Out of a magical photograph steps Freddie’s Great-Great-Great Uncle Fred; a real footballer from the olden days. Uncle Fred takes Freddie back in time where they re-live footballing glories of old. Freddie renews her confidence and enthusiasm and everyone joins in a good old-fashioned kick around.

Saturday 26th Oct 2pm. St Barts Church, Armley. 

Yorkshire Circus – Winter Showcase and Fire Jam Open Stage

As we head into winter for 2024, we wanted to take this opportunity to invite you to the Yorkshire Circus Winter showcase.

Normally every year we try to host an open fire jam as an opportunity to come together as a community and celebrate the year, but this time we wanted to add more of what Yorkshire Circus does and celebrate what has been an amazing year for our performers, workshop leaders and all the participants that have taken part in our sessions both in our space and across the country.

Storytime With Hold Fast Bookshop!

Join us for Storytime! We will be reading Troll by Frances Stickley and Stefano Martinuz. 

Troll is a deaf inclusive story and we will have Ann, a BSL interpreter to help us share the story with everybody. 

Troll is a lovely story that can be enjoyed by anyone but is aimed at children aged 3-7. 

All children must be accompanied by a responsible care giver.

For this event we will be taking to dry land and hosting in West Dock Creative Studios, the building next to our floating bookshop. It is fully accessible.

longer to design your own mindfulness pattern.

Reflect

Emma Gasson (UK)

When shafts of light dance and bounce off moving water, the effect is hypnotic and meditative. Guided by an ambient soundtrack, trail your hand through water to generate ripples which are reflected at scale inside an atmospheric brick archway.
