We’ll be showcasing artistic and musical talent from the Orb Community at this year’s Knaresborough Festival of Entertainment and Visual Arts (FEVA) on Sunday 15th August.
There’ll be live bands, DJs, a drum clinic, spoken word performances and artwork from Orb members, volunteers and supporters. Events take place both indoors and outdoor in the relaxing grounds of Henshaw’s Arts & Craft Centre, with food available all day and a licensed bar too.
We’re also fund-raising at the event to help continue our work promoting positive mental health at our community IT suite, recording studio and art space.
