Dudley Creates started as a Creative Black Country commissioned cultural programme designed to make possible a diverse and locally relevant programme of high-quality creative participation opportunities for local communities across Dudley Borough.

Visual Vernacular (VV) Artist Ishtiaq Hussain captures two themes; ‘Medal’ and ‘Queen’ through a powerful visual manner using his entire body, iconic gestures and facial expressions.

Inspiring young people to work in the creative industries with ‘Creative Confidence Sessions’ Stourbridge Jobcentre was selected to become part of CBC’s Creative Communities programme in 2020 as part of the organisation’s new programme in Dudley.

Creative Black Country and Multistory are delighted to be welcoming photographer Rob Hornstra and writer/ filmmamker Arnold van Bruggen to the Black Country and our first project in Dudley.
