electric promenade

light showers didn’t seem to be dampening spirits at a reinvigorated filey festival today. filey is a few miles down the coast from us and beyond yorkshire it’s a bit a well-kept secret for those who want a taste of the unspoilt british seaside – there are few more quietly enjoyable experiences that munching chips on the coble landing watching the fishing cobles being pulled off the sands. and what sands – nearly six miles of golden beach.
an altogether more contemporary side of filey is on show thursday, friday and saturday this week as part of the festival – ‘electric promenade’ promises digital projections on the beach, the result of local artist rachel massey working with local youth. fingers crossed the weather brightens before then.
