Flaming Skirt Festival 2015

Contemporary Arts Festivals in East Midlands Rural Spaces During June and July 2015 we invited you to step on board, revel in the Flaming Skirt Festival and celebrate your local community. We hope you enjoyed the two pop-up contemporary art community festivals, one in NW Leicestershire and one in Derbyshire. Each unique day involved five exciting mini contemporary arts events and a double-decker bus taking us between each venue. There was fun and delightful creative surprises at each Flaming Skirt Festival location, with lots of tea and cakes. We experienced great arts, fantastic activities and learnt new skills. These are great places to live, visit and work. http://www.flamingskirtfestival.org
