STRIKE: Poetry Drop-In Workshops
Nabeela Ahmed
Free, family-friendly poetry workshops at Manningham Library.
As part of STRIKE – a bold celebration of the radical women who have shaped modern Bradford – we invited you to join poet and facilitator Nabeela Ahmed for free, family-friendly poetry workshops at Manningham Library.
These drop-in sessions invited you to explore words, identity, and heritage while celebrating the radical women who shaped modern Bradford.
These poetry workshops were part of STRIKE, a dynamic series of community events that culminated in three nights of large-scale light, sound, and projection shows in Manningham, alongside an exhibition highlighting the community and school developed through the STRIKE project!
About STRIKE
STRIKE was a celebration of the radical women who made modern Bradford.
This major work used light, sound and projection to explore a landmark moment in the history of Bradford and the modern labour movement – and spotlight the fearless women who made it happen.
