Clean Break’s biennial Members Festival is back this summer with an exciting line-up of original stories, performances and workshops by Clean Break Members. Beyond is a celebratory event led and delivered by our Members*, dedicated to showcasing the creative talents and personal projects of the women at the heart of Clean Break.
Connection, discovery and healing are the central themes of this year’s festival. Audiences are invited to connect with Clean Break’s creative community, at an event which will inspire and nourish.
The festival is proud to be a participatory and community-focused event organised by our Members Festival Committee.
Taking place from Thursday 11 to Saturday 13 July, the first day of the festival is for the Clean Break community, including Members, staff, volunteers and supporters. On the Friday and Saturday, members of the public are invited to join the performances and activities.
Tickets are free, with the option to donate to Clean Break. All donations are gratefully received, and help us continue our transformational work.
