Festival of Thrift is a multi-award winning festival. We have been celebrating sustainable living since 2012 providing a voice for sustainable issues globally and locally. Each year we build a unique, fun and sustainable national event that celebrates heritage and contributes to the future prosperity of Tees Valley. We actively focus on community cohesion by targeting communities with less access to cultural activities and highlighting the skills and creativity of our region’s artists and craftspeople, to inspire people of all ages to learn old ways, and find new ways to be creative in our everyday lives.
