Loading Bay, in partnership with Impressions Gallery
1 Duke Street, Bradford BD1 3QR
28 January to 11 April 2027
Free exhibition
Launching on 28 January 2027, the newest iteration of the We Feed The UK exhibition is journeying to Loading Bay in Bradford, in partnership with Impressions Gallery, for a ten-week run.
From women farmers in the Scottish Highlands and Black-led collectives growing in the heart of London, to soil restoration in Northumberland, and young people leading regeneration projects in the Brecon Beacons, attendees will experience four joyous examples of food system transformation already bursting from the margins.
Each of the four stories on display invites us to look beyond the apathy and despair too often in the foreground, and imagine instead the radical, locally led counters to corporate food production made possible through collaboration and belief.
Enriched by events throughout its run, this exhibition at Loading Bay, in partnership with Impressions Gallery, offers a taste of what can be cultivated in Bradford and beyond.
Loading Bay is open Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 12:00 – 18:00, and Sunday from 12:00 – 16:00.
