The Escape2Make Heritage Festival is a Lancaster-based project supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The festival aims to connect young people with their local heritage through creative activities inspired by the stories, people and places that shape their communities.
Alongside an exciting programme taking place across Lancaster and Morecambe this summer, the festival will also visit six satellite locations across Lancashire and Cumbria. Clitheroe Castle Museum is delighted to be one of these venues, helping to bring heritage-inspired creativity to new audiences across the region.
