Join us for the launch of DNA Tapestries, a youth-led pop-up mini museum celebrating the creativity, heritage and DNA of Bradford.
Created by Bradford District Museums and Galleries’ Young Ambassadors, the exhibition brings together art, museum objects, archival film, photography, music, writing, craft, history and science. The project has been shaped and co-curated by young people aged 16 to 25 from across West Yorkshire, working alongside a professional freelance artist.
Come along to explore the exhibition, meet members of the current Museum Young Ambassadors cohort and find out more about the ideas and creative processes behind the displays.
Anyone aged 16 to 25 who is interested in becoming a Museum Young Ambassador in 2027 is warmly invited to attend and speak to the current group about their experiences.
Everyone is welcome, and refreshments will be provided.
