Young people on the Kickstarters scheme at Bradford Council's Youth Service are putting on a Culture Festival at Keighley Creative on Saturday.
The event, which runs from 11am to 6pm, aims to bring together all ages and families to celebrate the creative and cultural talent of the people of Keighley and the surrounding areas.
They also hope to bring unity to Keighley and break down any stereotypes that others may have of a community.
There will be pay-as-you-feel food from The Good Food Project, live performance from Punjabi Roots Academy, a bollywood performance from Deeba, a performance by Will from Waterlemon Music, live poetry from Noor, Bernie the Bolt Punk Poet and Barbra Howerska, a Tai Chi workshop with Val Preston, a community jukebox (bring your own vinyl to spin), films from the People Library, Refugee Film Festival and Scott Coulthard.
