Hive is a community arts charity in Shipley, Bradford. We have been active in the Shipley community since 1982. For the last 35 years we have successfully delivered arts & crafts courses, workshops and projects from our centre in Shipley and across the Bradford District.

We believe that creative activity contributes to good health and wellbeing and helps to bring communities together.

We provide a non–traditional learning environment with access to areas of visual arts & crafts that include drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, textiles, stained glass and woodwork.

Hive offers the opportunity to enable personal development through a combination of formal and informal supported training within a creative space. In addition we offer a variety of volunteering opportunities to individuals within Hive.

In 2017– 2018, Hive will provide over 40 courses in Art & Design to the adult education sector. These courses are available to everyone over the age of 16 and run from September to July. Whatever your artistic interests, we look forward to welcoming you.

really taught me is to not focus on the

things that I can’t do anymore, but instead

to focus on the things that I can do.”
