A unique sound and light event is continuing in Derbyshire
250 years of local heritage and history is being celebrated at Cromford Mills
More than 1,400 people turned out to see the first instalment of Shine A Light set against the backdrop of Chatsworth last weekend.
The second show is set at Cromford Mills, home of Sir Richard Arkwright’s first mill complex, in the UNESCO Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site, on Thursday 28th and Friday 29th October from 6.30pm.
Once again it features illuminations and projections alongside sounds from Voices From The Peak, created by local poet and performer Mark Gwynne Jones to celebrate the Peak District National Park’s 70th birthday earlier this year.
Derbysire County Council leader Barry Lewis says, "“We’re proud to be able to help support these unique experiences which will provide excellent entertainment for tourists and residents alike.
“It is vital we support the local visitor economy to recover following coronavirus pandemic and we hope in future years to extend ‘Shine A Light’ to more venues across our county.”
