One of the highlights of this year’s Dearne Community Arts’ Festival (27 September, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m., Astrea Academy Dearne) is the screening of Sam Batley’s film ‘The Town I Love So Well’ at 11.30 a.m. and 1.30 p.m., along with a Q & A session with Sam himself and the chance to see some amazing local photos by Pete Davies (our resident photographer).

The film looks at Barnsley’s culture, community and creativity and features scenes and interviews from DCAF 2024 along with interviews from many other local creative groups. It lasts an hour, but you can view it here on a drop-in basis.
