Weird as Folk Public Opening

Weird As Folk invites you to wander through the mysteries of our Folklore collection and reimagine what folklore means to you. We have ventured across the Northwest, delved deep into the cloughs and unearthed Folk treasures. From centuries-old boots found concealed in chimneys, to witch-bottles and dastardly boggarts. We invite you to explore the hidden histories displayed within the volumes from our Folklore collection, and meander through our folk-forest, where you can contribute your own tall tales written down on a folk-leaf or two.

Weird As Folk is forged from the desire to spark the curiosity and contribution of audiences everywhere. Folklore is made by us all:, it is what we do, make, and say everyday. We invite you to contribute your own stories, folk sayings, and responses to the collection and exhibition.
