We’re really pleased to invite practising visual artists based in Bradford to a very special opportunity at Cartwright Hall. Join Yorkshire Contemporary and Turner Prize curator Michael Richmond for a guided tour of this year’s Turner Prize exhibition. It’s a rare chance to spend time with the work, hear directly from the curator, and explore the exhibition in a relaxed, welcoming setting alongside fellow local artists.
This free event is inclusive and open to artists living or working in Bradford, but places are very limited, and booking is essential. If you’re curious, inspired by contemporary practice, or just fancy experiencing the Turner Prize through an artist-to-artist lens, we’d love you to join us.
