About

Our Year will enable everyone everywhere to explore and discover the Wakefield district and ignite their own creativity. By working with our partners, we will bring together our collective resources, expertise, and passion, so that Our Year can inspire the whole district and beyond.


More than ever before, the people of Wakefield recognise the positive impact of arts and culture on their quality of life and with it their personal health and wellbeing. With communities at its heart, Our Year’s programme will drive forward an outstanding quality of life for everyone.
