Artistic Director

The challenge for the Artistic Director is to create and deliver a programme that will delight and inspire Festival-goers and keep them coming back for more, while at the same time attracting a wider and more diverse audience. Running over the last week of May and the first week of June, a packed programme of around sixty events includes concerts, walks, workshops and art exhibitions. We make good use of characterful churches, village halls and, of course, the glorious Dales landscape.
