Each year Steel Valley Beacon Arts gets together with local artists, writers, poets and musicians and gives them the opportunity to present their work to a wider audience.
This event has been run under a number of banners, including 'Homeground' and 'Homebrew', but we have settled on HOMEGROWN over ther past couple of years and, as a result of the growing interest - both from those presenting their work and those coming along to enjoy and appreciate it - it has grown from a single evening's enertainment to a two-day FESTIVAL of the ARTS.
Details of the next HOMEGROWN FESTIVAL will be posted on our NEWS page. Previous events have included:
Art Exhibitions
Guitar Showcase
Local Bandsin concert
Poetry and Pints
and also Street Dancing and Flower Arranging workshops (open to all)
If you're interested in presenting your work at a future HOMEGROWN FESTIVAL, then please send an email to Homegrown@steelvalleybeaconarts.org
We are also considering the publication of a selection of the written work that has been presented at this and previous Homegrown events.
Further details about this and other forthcoming SVBA events can be obtained from 07960 306537, 0114 2882498 or 0114 2830949.
