D7913/3/2
Title
Bolsover Children's Festival
Date
1995-2002
Description
Bolsover Children's Festival was a large event run by Junction Arts over many years, centred on Bolsover Castle. Photographs typically show children engaged in activities in the grounds of the castle such as craft work, games, dance, and dressing up in historical costumes. They are typically colour 6 x 4 inch prints, marked on the reverse as being in the copyright of Junction Arts.
This series of photographs has been arranged by year and the particular year forms the final component in the reference number, so there are no files associated with the range of references D7913/3/2/1-1994. This structure reflects the original arrangement of the photographs, which on transfer to Derbyshire Record Office were contained in envelopes filled with plastic pockets, glued to sheets of plain paper. Each envelope was associated with one year's festival, although if the contents have been found to go beyond that date, this is indicated in the Date field. The original envelopes of photographs were appraised by Junction Arts staff and volunteers in 2016, and similar or uninformative images were removed so as to reduce the bulk of the total. They were also removed from the paper backing so as to extend the life of the prints.
