About this event

All Day –
Bradford Industrial Museum

Following Threads features thirteen of Keighley Creative’s resident artists and artisans, responding to the collections housed within Bradford District Museums and Galleries, and the theme of Industry and our Environment. Key to this was Bradford Industrial Museum, which tells the story of the city’s manufacturing heritage through its buildings, collections, and local stories.
This exciting exhibition features work by Peat Blagg, Gabriella Boiangiu, Olivia Brearley, Naseem Darbey, Jane Fielder,  Louise Garrett, Letty McHugh, Bill Parker, Steve Robertson, Anna Scott, Jan Smithies and Ken Woods.
Please note: As we host our Victorian Christmas Market weekend at Bradford Industrial Museum in November, elements of this exhibition may have been moved or may be obscured from 15 November until 3 December 2022. We apologise for any inconvenience.
