Being Human Festival

Being Human Festival is a celebration of arts and humanities research through public engagement and runs from 6 – 15 November 2025. This year’s festival theme is ‘Between the Lines’.

Running across multiple venues across Surrey, the ‘Between the Lines: Surrey’s Hidden Histories’ programme will invite local communities to uncover aspects of Surrey’s past — from forgotten artists and suppressed musical legacies to LGBTQ+ fashion histories and the experiences of displaced young people.
