Explore the Back in the Pink pop-up exhibition.

This will include the brand-new commissions from Jude Kershaw, Jenn Willson, and SHARP responding to the newly formed Bradford LGBTQ+ Archive alongside material from the archive itself.
Pink After Dark
The exhibition will be open in the evening as part of Pink After Dark: A celebration of the long-lost and much-missed spaces like the Bavaria and the Juncton, longtime landmarks of the Bradford LGBTQ+ scene, with new live art commissions, performances, drag artists and DJs.
About the Back in the Pink Weekender
Back in the Pink, Bradford 2025’s series dedicated to the rich and radical history of LGBTQ+ life in the city, continues with a weekend-long celebration of gay life – past, present and future.
Travel back in time to explore the activism, community and culture of Bradford’s LGBTQ+ communities in the late 20th century. Connect with today’s LGBTQ+ community at workshops, discussions and a Saturday-night party. And consider how together, we can preserve our own communities’ histories for generations to come.
