OUR TURN Festival Launch: Practice Bradford
Join us at Loading Bay as we officially launch the OUR TURN festival with Practice Bradford!
Practice Bradford is the first exhibition in the OUR TURN programme, showcasing ambitious new work by four exciting early career Bradford artists: Joanna Byrne, Atiyya Mirza, Liv Preston, and Saba Siddiqui.
This special launch evening is your chance to be among the first to experience the exhibition. We’ll also share more about the wider OUR TURN programme – an exciting season of visual arts celebrations across the district, led by Bradford artists.
- 5.30pm: Doors Open
- 6.00pm: Speeches from Bradford 2025, Bradford Producing Hub, South Square and Yorkshire Contemporary

Refreshments will be provided.
The launch event is free and open to all, but spaces are limited. Please RSVP and reserve your ticket now.
Curated by Yorkshire Contemporary, the exhibition is the culmination of Practice: Bradford, an artist development programme providing funding, mentorship, and professional development. The programme is delivered in partnership with Bradford Producing Hub and Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture.
