Film Screening & Q&A
The Last Forgotten Art
With Jessie Leong, Vicky Walsh & Steve Rayner

19.00 start

Is crack climbing the Last Forgotten Art? From hand-sized splitters, chicken wings to whole body wriggles, ‘The Last Forgotten Art’ follows crack aficionados Mel, Vicky and Steve in their pursuit of slightly more unusual ‘off-width climbs’ found in the Peak District. The film, which won the People’s Choice Award at Kendal Film Festival, places emphasis on a different style of climbing that requires a certain amount of creativity to climb them, focusing on the fringes of the climbing community drawn to all things wide at its heart.
