Love Kempston Light Walk

Free | No booking required
We invite you to experience a magical illuminated trial along the riverbank to see Kempston as you have never seen it before. Artist-designed illuminated installations will be hidden along the riverbank between Kempston Mill and Sanders Close as dusk descends on Kempston and everyone is invited to see these magical, twinkling treasures as they enjoy an evening walk.
Discover Kempston’s night-time wildlife, natural beauty and the work of local artists along this family-friendly walk. Grab a snack or a hot drink from one of our vendors and enjoy live acoustic music.
This event is free and is being delivered as part of our River/ Flow/ Connect programme of activity. Bedford Creative Arts has been working with schools, families and communities in Kempston to provide the opportunity to re-engage with the river on their doorstep and consider how art and activity can help to embrace the positive benefits of living by the river.
Why not join us at the landing stage or drop in at Kempston library earlier in the day to make a lantern to carry along the walk? Or, book on to our clay workshops with artist Janet Reddy to create art which will be used in the installation along the river.
The walk lasts approximately 40 minutes in length and is along the Kempston Riverside Path.
