EVENT: Pop‑Up Exhibition
Saturday 20 June 2026 - 11am to 2pm
George V Park, Staveley

An exciting one‑day pop‑up exhibition is coming to Chesterfield, celebrating the town’s creativity and community spirit.

Taking place at King George V Park in Staveley, the event will showcase artwork created by children and young people, displayed alongside pieces from local artists, creatives and community groups. Hundreds of contributors have submitted work for the Arts Council funded exhibition, delivered by Chesterfield’s Cultural Education Partnership, Creative Revolution.

Organisers say the event offers a rare and inspiring opportunity for young people to see their work presented in a public setting, exhibited alongside artists from a wide range of artforms and community organisations.

Donna, from founding partner Growth Activities, said:
“We’re part of the Cultural Revolution Partnership because we believe every young person deserves access to great arts and culture, no matter where they grow up. Early creative experiences can spark confidence, widen horizons and open doors that might otherwise stay closed. For us, this partnership is about turning that belief into action. We hope the young people involved will remember this, feel proud of what they’ve created, and carry that legacy forward.”

Over the past six months, the partnership has delivered free, artist‑led workshops to more than 570 children across Chesterfield. Seven professional artists have worked with eight local schools and students from Chesterfield College, with several groups collaborating on larger pieces that will be unveiled at the exhibition.

The event is free to attend and offers fun for all the family, with live performances and artwork from local schools.

Event: Simon Mayor & Hilary James
Saturday 27 June
Hill Memorial Hall

The Chesterfield Canal Trust is promoting two concerts at the newly restored Barrow Hill Memorial Hall. The proceeds will go towards the further restoration of the canal.

Across Britain from Shetland to Sark, and across the globe from Vancouver to Singapore, Simon Mayor and Hilary James have brought their special blend of dazzling musicianship.

If they have a speciality, it’s an ability to combine a truly diverse array of talents into a hugely entertaining stage show. There can’t be many performers who slide easily from a beautifully evocative Irish ballad into a mandolin and guitar version of Handel’s Arrival of the Queen of Sheba and then have the audience singing one of their own notorious comic songs, but it’s this wry humour and an easy, informal stage manner that holds it all together.

In 2022 Simon and Hilary were delighted to accept invitations to be honorary directors of The Classical Mandolin Society of America.

They share a passionate interest in children’s music and have worked extensively with young people in theatres and schools, as well as writing and presenting music education programmes for BBC Radio and TV for six years. They have recorded five ‘Musical Mystery Tour’ children’s albums of original songs, ‘Lullabies with Mandolins’ (currently riding high on Apple Music), two rhyming picture story books for Top That!

Publications, and the ‘Musical Mystery Tour’ songbook, published by Faber Music.

To book, search for Chesterfield Canal Trust and follow the links or ring 01246 477569. Tickets cost £15. The concerts start at 7:30pm, and the bar will be open.

Event: The Swing Commanders
Friday 26 June
Hill Memorial Hall

The Chesterfield Canal Trust is promoting two concerts at the newly restored Barrow Hill Memorial Hall. The proceeds will go towards the further restoration of the canal.

The Swing Commanders are a stunningly vibrant and versatile group that performs an exciting mix of 1940s classics, boogie-woogie, western swing, 50s jump jazz and more!

Every member sings and plays at least one instrument, sometimes three; yet what makes them stand out even above their incredible music ability and performing skills is their joie-de-vivre.

The band has appeared, often headlining, at most of the UK’s top Vintage and Country Music festivals. Loved by fans of Jazz, Country, Swing and Blues, The Swing Commanders fill dancehalls with Lindy Hoppers, Modern Jivers, Line Dancers, and Social Dancers, up and down the UK, and as far as Europe and the US.
People who experience the band for the first time are amazed at the energetic showmanship, the instrument swapping, the tight arrangements, and vocal blend.

To book, search for Chesterfield Canal Trust and follow the links or ring 01246 477569. Tickets cost £15. The concerts start at 7:30pm, and the bar will be open.
