Complete Details

Designed as an interactive follow-up to the spring fairs, the Summer Makers & Creative Workshops series is a weekend dedicated to skill-sharing and the process of making. Held at the Caroline Street Social Club and nearby creative studios, this event moves the focus from buying art to understanding how it is made. Saltaire Inspired collaborates with local artisans to provide bookable workshops that range from screen-printing and bookbinding to advanced ceramic glazing techniques.

The weekend also features a "mini-fair" focusing specifically on supplies and tools for makers, catering to the growing community of hobbyists and semi-professional artists in the Bradford district. The goal of this event is to inspire the next generation of creators. By providing high-quality tuition in an accessible, community-focused environment, Saltaire Inspired fulfills its mission to make art participation inclusive for all. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced artist looking to refine a specific technique, the workshops offer personalized instruction from industry professionals. The event also includes a series of "Artist in Conversation" sessions, where makers discuss the business side of art, including marketing, sustainability in materials, and navigating the UK craft scene. It is a vital networking event that bridges the gap between the professional artist and the interested public.
