The Bradford Art Show 2025

The Bradford Art Show is an ‘open submission’ exhibition which means anyone aged 18+ and working in any visual arts medium can enter.

We are now inviting you to submit work relating to our theme: OUR PLACE. Submissions are open and will close on Tuesday 30 September.

The exhibition will open at Loading Bay in Bradford city centre in December. It will platform and recognise the experiences and creative voices of people right across the district, including those who are currently underrepresented.

We want to create an exhibition that is bold, which excites and inspires visitors and which presents an authentic vision of creativity in Bradford at a moment when the Turner Prize will shine a national spotlight on the city.

Show us your creative passions, Bradford!
