PROGRAMME of EVENTS SEPTEMBER 7–30 2017 Pennine Lancashire Is Shaped by Textiles; They Are Woven Through Its Social and Urban Fabric PROGRAMME OF EVENTS SEPTEMBER 7–30 2017 Pennine Lancashire is shaped by textiles; they are woven through its social and urban fabric. By the end of the 19th century the area, stretching along the banks of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal, was producing 85% of the world’s cotton goods and it was this global trade that brought thousands of workers to drive its mills over the ensuing centuries, building a creative, industrious and diverse population that shapes the area today. Drawing on this rich heritage, Fabrications is the UK’s first festival that celebrates and explores textiles and the textile industry through the eyes of artists. Taking place in galleries, museums and former textile mills across Blackburn, Hyndburn, Burnley and Pendle throughout September, the festival presents something for everyone with exhibitions, residencies, workshops, a craft fair hosted by Selvedge magazine and major art installations and performances including the premiere of Suzanne Lacy’s film produced with the people of Pendle.

The Circle and The Square is a moving testament to this process that culminated last year when, over three days in September 2016, the community came together to film themselves in the huge empty spaces of Brierfield Mill where many used to work. Using the two vocal forms of Shape Note singing and Sufi chanting, the installation includes multi-vocal conversations about the past, present and future of the region following the demise of the textile industry and will be accompanied by presentations of Shape Note, Dhikr, Nasheed and mill ballads. The installation will be accompanied by a project archive and resource room at Brierfield Town Hall that charts the histories of the area and its communities and tells the story of the project through films and books. Please see the website for more details and events during the installation. 7 FABRICATIONS.ORG.UK METIS : WORLD FACTORY —— Thu 28th—Sat 30th Sep —— Thu 28th 8pm BRIERFIELD C —— Fri 29th 3pm & 8pm Made in China.

The charming and insightful stories that create Sunday Best came as a result of months of 1:1 recording sessions in homes, workplaces, day care centres, colleges and schools, where people told their sometimes humorous or hard won clothing histories. These stories became a social commentary on fashion choices bespoke to the Pendle area, brought to life in an archive collection. Sunday Best stands not only as a fashion archive but a reminder of Pendle’s colourful, inventive and creative spirit. 9 FABRICATIONS.ORG.UK A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME... —— Thu 7th Sep—Tue 14th Nov DEBBIE SMYTH —— Wed—Sat 12—4.45pm K Blackburn Museum and Art BLACKBURN Gallery, Blackburn —— FREE Debbie Smyth is a textile artist most identifiable by her statement thread drawings; these playful yet sophisticated contemporary artworks are created by stretching a network of threads between accurately plotted pins. Her work beautifully blurs the boundaries between fine art drawings and textile art, flat and 3D work, illustration and embroidery, literally lifting the drawn line off the page in a series of “pin and thread” drawings for Fabrications. Debbie will be in residence at Blackburn’s historic Museum and Art Gallery during the summer of 2017, exploring their eclectic and fascinating collections; culminating in a dynamic, site responsive art work, that can be witnessed, growing within the museum’s beautiful watercolour gallery space. Many thanks to Blackburn Yarn Dyers and Three Bears Yarn for supply of the yarn for this project. 10 EXHIBITIONS LUMINARY —— SERENA PARTRIDGE —— Thu 7th Sep— Sun 5th Nov PADIHAM E —— Wed—Sun 12—5pm Luminary presents embroidered installations by Serena Gawthorpe Hall, Padiham Partridge inspired by Rachel Kay-Shuttleworth and the —— £4 ADULTS textile collection she created.

  • Book Review: River Calder
    Book review: River Calder by Pam Norfolk [email protected] Tucked away in the well-trodden Lancashire countryside near Burnley is the mysteriously named Valley of the Goblins. The real name of this wild, isolated and beautiful spot is Thursden, part of a popular walking route which follows the River Calder. ‘Thurses’ were supernatural goblins or poltergeists in the Middle Ages and locals believed that one of their last haunts was the Thursden Valley. The ancients, many of whom were buried in this uncompromising place, also believed that the Norse god Thor lived here and created thunder by banging his giant hammer against the rocks below Rieve Edge. Within the valley is a stream which eventually becomes the River Calder, the shortest in England and one of three rivers (the others being the Ribble and Hodder) which meet in Mitton. The Calder was once described as ‘the Cinderella’ of the trio because of its industrial past but it has been undergoing something of a renaissance. The fish are coming back, over a million trees have been planted in the nearby moorland cloughs, abandoned coal mines no longer discharge into local streams and the Ribble Rivers Trust is working hard to improve the waters and to celebrate a new era for this rich and historic area, Burnley Borough Councillor and Burnley Civic Society chairman Roger Frost has collaborated with Ian Thompson and Victoria Dewhurst on this fully illustrated guide. The river passes through Holme Chapel, Walk Mill, Burnley, Padiham, Altham and Whalley before joining the Ribble near Great Mitton. It lies in the shadow of brooding Pendle Hill and its name essentially means ‘fast-flowing water.’ And the Calder can certainly be perilous.
