The European Route of Industrial Heritage (ERIH)’s annual day of industrial culture, ‘WORK it OUT’, returns on 10th September 2023. The European-wide dance festival encompasses 30 industrial heritage sites spread across ten countries. ‘WORK it OUT” premiered in 2018 as ERIH’s main contribution to the European Year of Cultural Heritage. Due to its success and popularity, it has since become an annual event.
The event is aimed primarily at young people (children, teenagers, and young adults from school classes, sports clubs, dance and fitness studios) who can consciously experience industrial culture and its sites and discover their significance for their own past, their relevance for the present and their potential for the future. Of course, the young at heart of all ages who want to get moving can also take part.
All over Europe, on the day of the event at 3 pm, dancing will take place in front of, in, and even on imposing industrial sites, making industrial heritage an attractive place to experience. The Brick Museum at Bursledon, Southampton, https://thebrickworksmuseum.org/, is amongst the museums from all over Europe taking taking part this year.

Hello Mike,
Port Sunlight did this a few years ago and it was really great fun. We do not have the capacity to do it this year… but maybe next year!
Best wishes, Heather
