Made in Roath 2016, Spotlight on Happenings

Happenings, occurrences, events, incidents, scenes, affairs, phenomenons, episodes, adventures, experiences, occasions, actions, interventions, activities, developments, eventualities …. things. All these and more will be taking place during Made in Roath 2016 under the category of Happenings.

 Taking place all over Roath, Happenings celebrate the very neighbourhood in which we live. Occurring in a variety of places all around Roath which include the streets, empty shops, public spaces. front gardens, back gardens, homes, businesses and places that have no name at all (Well no official name, not a name which we can mention anyway but I’m sure you know of the places that we speak…yes those places, the non spaces) Anyway the Happening category is one of the funnest and most wide ranging in the Made in Roath program, including many brand new and specially commissioned projects that invite artists, both local and from around the UK to make and respond to site specific areas and to explore new elements and ideas in their work in the community of Roath. Coordinated by Gail Howard and Clare Charles this by concept alone promises to be an exciting and interesting aspect to the 2016 festival. The list of happenings is for ever growing but to mention a few we have

Made in Roath 2016, Spotlight on Exhibition

You might think at this point, after mentioning Stage, Spoken word, Digital Arts and CREATE we would be coming to the end of our list of things going on in this years Made in Roath but no we have plenty more to share with you. So much more in fact that we haven't even hit the half way point in the list of events. We are not done yet. Not by a long shot. Next up we have Exhibitions. 

Made in Roath has always had a very diverse and renown exhibition programme, supported by some fantastic local galleries and cultural centres. This year sees exhibitions taking place in more unusual places too such as public locations and the wonderful homes and community spaces of Roath. 


A notable aspect of Made in Roath is the chance for everyone wanting to share their creativity to be able to participate and exhibit with us and this years festival program continues this fine tradition (even if we do say so ourselves). Coordinated by Helen Clifford the exhibition program is massive (for lack of a more grammatically correct word) and offers such a wide range of exhibitions that trying to keep you up to date with it all is driving our media team slightly mad (although they weren’t exactly “normal” before). A brief line up of whats on offer is
