We are delighted to be a part of Nature Season, a new grant programme supporting creative projects inspired by the natural environment, taking place across Kirklees.

The Holme Mills Sculpture trail is a series of free adult workshops, working with local artists, communities and partners to create an accessible sculpture trail linking Slaithwaite, Marsden and Holme Mills.

Using reclaimed materials and heritage-inspired artwork, the trail will celebrate local history, nature and the seasons while improving access, encouraging active travel, and engaging residents through creative workshops and volunteering opportunities.

Explore our rich heritage in the Colne Valley and help preserve traditional glassmaking skills in our region!

Join our expert stained glass tutors at Globe Arts Studio to master traditional techniques and help develop beautiful glass designs. Your unique creations will be permanently embedded into reclaimed mill and lock timbers, forming a vibrant waymarker sculpture trail between Marsden and Slaithwaite.

Globe Arts will supply all glass, tools, safety equipment, and aprons for the workshop. The studio environment can vary in temperature, so comfortable layers are recommended. For safety in the glass studio, sandals or open-toed footwear are strictly not allowed.

These workshops are either free or heavily discounted, thanks to our funding.

Booking is required. Use the buttons below to book your spot!

All of our fully funded Stained Glass sessions are full, so we are now offering heavily discounted tickets.
