Keighley Creative are looking for five assistant creative facilitators to support the delivery of the MEGA Drawing Box in the Park and encourage families to engage with the activity.

Keighley Creative are looking for seven visual artists from Keighley and surrounding areas to produce creative responses on the outer walls of the Mega Drawing Box, LIVE for the visiting public.

In order to facilitate the Rombald’s Rocks themed art workshops, we needed a strong team of practitioners that could inspire and guide attendees to get creative and engage with the project.

Rombald’s Rocks: Keighley Sculpture Trail is a project created and implemented by artist, Leonie Briggs, and ourselves, Keighley Creative. It is the brainchild of Leonie who thought Keighley deserved it’s own sculpture trail and she wanted to create a community art project that involved local people and would bring something positive to town.

To give everyone a chance to contribute to the Rombald’s Rocks project, we are also running a colouring competition. Just grab a Rombald’s Rocks colouring sheet from the Airedale Shopping Centre or download one here.

We are looking for freelance creatives for our BIG Craft Spectacular workshop series taking place throughout 2025. This project is funded by The Leap.
