Over the centuries the most popular and effective language of Islamic discourse and engagement has been its arts and crafts. Through its architecture, gardens, calligraphy, silverware, woodwork, drums, tiles, carpets and textiles the faith has expressed its simple but powerful message of Love & Etiquette.

ILHAM - Inspiring creativity through art & culture is a year long set of events and workshops celebrating the rich and cultural heritage of Islam and its peoples and explores its relevance to communities in East Lancashire today.
From Calligraphy, Graphic Design, Film & Photography, Spoken Word Poetry, Leather Handcraft, Islamic Gardens, Illumination Art, Arabesque Stone Carving to Comic Book Art. 2010 promises a super offering of creative talent and craftsmanship and brings Love & Etiquette back to what we do best... Inspiring Creativity through Art & Culture. Keep an eye on our website for further details as we continue to improve our website and service provision.

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
RUMI
When truth has no burning, then it is philosophy, when it gets burning from the heart, it becomes poetry.
