A celebration at Hive

Hive, formerly Kirkgate Studios and Workshops, has worked for over 30 years to promote and deliver creative activities to communities across Bradford. Our base in Shipley has a fully equipped workshop space including pottery, woodworking and a range of creative facilities.

We offer opportunities to explore creative skills and abilities in a fun and informal way; engage interest in the arts, develop opportunities for individuals to explore their creative side in an informal and supportive environment.

We are delighted that, with support from Awards for All working with artists Jane McDonald and Vic Buta, we are able to celebrate our 30th Anniversary with a project that has involved many different communities around Bradford and District. These groups have been involved in creating carnival costumes for our celebration event on Saturday 2nd June.

All are welcome to celebrate at our Shipley base from 12pm - 4pm. There will be a shared lunch, live music, arts and crafts activities, a chance to see all the fantastic carnival costumes and other Open for Art venues nearby to explore.
