Join us at Bradford Industrial Museum to celebrate Yorkshire Day!
We’ll have a range of activities taking place on site – with live music, Morris dancing, family activities – and there might even be a horse on site for the day.
Craft makers living or working in the Bradford district are invited to apply for a stall at the “Made By Many Hands” Makers Market, taking place at Bradford Industrial Museum as part of our Yorkshire Day celebrations on Saturday 1 August 2026. We’re looking for contemporary makers across a wide range of disciplines to take part in this lively, family‑friendly event, running from 11am–4pm.
The market will be part of the wider celebrations and will be complemented by our ongoing “Made By Many Hands” exhibition, celebrating some of the many crafts that have taken place across the Bradford District over the years (on display until mid‑November).
Applications close on Friday 26 June 2026, with successful applicants receiving a letter of confirmation by 1 July 2026. For more information on who we’re looking for and how to apply, head to the application form.
