SALTAIRE RESIDENTS
We are looking for Saltaire residents to participate as host ‘galleries’, to show work by selected artists in either their homes, windows or outdoor spaces on the Open Village Trail. Across Saltaire, these spaces will be open to the public for the three-day event over the Spring Bank Holiday weekend (Sat 24 – Mon 26 May 2025).The artists will install and invigilate their exhibition in collaboration with you and with the full support of our event team. This is a unique chance to take part in Bradford’s 2025 UK City of Culture year, as well as support UK artists and makers. This relaxed, fun and friendly event brings some of the country’s best contemporary art to Saltaire.
SALTAIRE ARTISTS
We also want to hear from Saltaire-based artists and makers who would like to open their studio or spaces as a venue. Please get in touch to find out more details about exhibiting your own work as a part of the Open Village Trail.
BUSINESSES & COMMUNITY BUILDINGS
If you have space – small or large – to show artwork and are interested in becoming venue on the Open Village Trail, we’d love to hear from you.
Interested? Contact Lana and Peter by 6 December at: [email protected]
