Rainy Day Picks This Weekend in Bleasby

10 picks around Bleasby, from 7 local venues. The map pin is doing actual work here.

25–26 July Near Bleasby

Not every listing gets a golden ticket

We check the usual frankly silly number of local websites, then look for events that feel rainy-day friendly: cinemas, theatres, talks, workshops, galleries, concerts, cosy venues, and anything less likely to involve standing in a muddy field making brave weather noises.

Happening Saturday 25 July to Sunday 26 July.
Picked for Bleasby, not somewhere halfway across the county.
Only Local Gems and Curated venues make the cut, because standards are still a thing.
Listings with proper descriptions get bumped up the list. Three words and a shrug will not do.

Stories in Watercolour6

Stories in Watercolour

About the event A solo exhibition by Celia Brookes The artworks in, “Stories in Watercolour”, are of everyday characters in real life. Celia Creates a composition, using depth, shapes, textures and shadows. These are not only aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but they also make people pause and wonder, what is the story behind this watercolour painting. Celia won the People’s Choice Award at the Sock Open Exhibition in 2024, the prize being this solo show. Please note on Saturday 11th July 10am – 1pm, half of the gallery will be closed due to a workshop.

Summer Sunday8

Summer Sunday

at Jubilee Church Derby

I Am The Bread Of Life This week we'll have an 'open table' service with activities that will bring us together as a whole church family, with extra provision for our youngest members. We'll have activities, worship, hear from God's word and pray together. Join us for what promises to be an interactive and encouraging service. Our theme this week is I Am The Bread Of Life Summer at Jubilee – Summer SundaysSunday 26th July sees the first of our Summer Sundays at Jubilee. This means we will have slightly shorter meetings (10.30am – 11.30am) and that there won't be any children's work (FROG Club) or creche. Please do thank and encourage our children's teams as they have faithfully served us so well this year and deserve a well-earned break! To help us all engage with services over the summer, we'll be alternating our service formats between a shorter standard service, which will include our children and youth, and a more interactive service with activities, worship, a short talk and prayer response together as a family. This summer we're going to be looking at some of the 'I Am' statements Jesus made in the gospels and we'll be hearing from some new and returning speakers. Our hope and prayer is that as we discover more about Jesus this summer, we'll be shaped more into His likeness and bring the good news to those around us, whatever our age.
