Hide AdShe said: “The website is the first of its kind in the north.
“It’s a great way to raise the profile of culture in Kirklees.”
The website includes a directory of artists, creative people, organisations and businesses by expertise and location.
The council hopes the directory will help artists to find venues and organisations to find people.
