Connected Communities: Stories and Cultural Practices in Darlington 15–21 June 2026 As part of  REFUGEE WEEK in Darlington we invite you to a week of exhibitions, events, and film screenings celebrating the stories, creativity, and cultures that shape Darlington today. Bringing together work created by local residents – including migrants and long-term communities – the programme explores themes of home, belonging, and shared experience through art, storytelling, and film. Everyone is welcome – come along, explore, and connect. Connected Communities is led by the Institute for Collective Place Leadership at Teesside University in collaboration with Creative Darlington, Centre for Local Studies, Hopetown Darlington, The Forum Music Studios, and Darlington Assistance for Refugees, and is supported by the AHRC Impact Acceleration Account and Creative Darlington. In partnership with the Stockton and Darlington Railway 26 miles Heritage Project and funded by the National Heritage Lottery Fund. Home Away From Home The fictional documentary film produced by artist Azadeh Fatehrad explores the shared human experiences of migration, homemaking, and integration. This 40-minute film reflects on a series of participatory aesthetic workshops conducted in Sweden, the UK, and Denmark from 2020 to 2024, in partnership with NGOs and facilitators.
