The Project
This project focuses on the history and significance of Calderdale’s moors and peatlands, using a route along The Calderdale Way to tell some very local stories and consider how we’ve shaped the moors.
Artists, writers and naturalists from the Peat Appreciation Society will collaborate with local heritage groups, students and youth groups to co-create material which will culminate in a pop-up exhibition and a zine, which will take readers and walkers through a journey using sound, art and creative writing.
