Based in our beautiful heritage building at the heart of the city centre, Bradford Arts Centre is a welcoming, inclusive and accessible space for everyone. A space to be more creative, let ideas flow, and feel like anything is possible.
Since 2022, we have hosted an annual Schools’ Takeover, where local primary schools ‘take over’ our arts centre for a series of creative and fun workshops– from Bhangra to Rap. The Takeovers bring children from different multicultural communities together, learning about other faiths, cultures and heritages, while developing their confidence and creative skills.
Whether it’s to help support a certain school subject, for a fun after school club, or for your Culture Day, our creative workshops are great way to engage your students.
Artsmark is the creative quality standard for schools and education settings, awarded by Arts Council England, recognising their commitment to high quality arts and cultural education. Artsmark is designed by schools for schools.
As part of your visit to Bradford Arts Centre your students will have the opportunity to visit our theatre space, meet with staff to learn about their roles and responsibilities in working for an arts organisation as well as the potential to meet some professional artists.
Based in our beautiful heritage building at the heart of the city centre, Bradford Arts Centre is a welcoming, inclusive, and accessible space for everyone to be more creative, have more ideas and to feel like everything is more possible.
We help people feel more connected to where they are and to build deeper understanding of different cultures.
Everyone is welcome at Bradford Arts Centre – Come in, have a cuppa, meet your friends, join a class, see a show or just take time out. We want everyone to feel like this is a space for them – because it is.
We have partnered with Keighley Creative, South Square Centre and Bloomin’ Buds theatre company to undertake an ambitious two-year engagement project.
