OPEN CALL: Super Slow Way Audio Residency

15th January 2024

We are looking for an artist/artists to work with communities along The Super Slow Way over the next year to create an audio platform!

We are looking for an artist/artists to work with communities along The Super Slow Way over the next year to create an audio platform, which could be anything from a digital archive or radio station to a sound installation or live performance.

It is hoped that the residency will facilitate collaboration across districts and activate relationships between communities to paint a picture of East Lancashire in 2024, working with participants to explore the relationship between environmental and social justice in neighbourhoods along the Leeds & Liverpool Canal from Blackburn to Pendle and share their experience of it.
