Strength In Numbers

Celebrate the importance of being heard and the power in finding your people.

Mind The Gap, Silk Warehouse, Bradford, BD9 4SA
Tuesday, Nov 3rd - Saturday, Nov 7th
What are the stories we wish we had the space to tell? What do we want to say? How do we get people to listen?

Strength in Numbers celebrates the importance of being heard and the power in finding your people.

Join us to explore the collaborative, multi-artform installation full of stories told by learning disabled and autistic people who are part of Mind the Gap’s community programme.

Through visual art, film, poetry, music, photography, storytelling and soundscape, Strength in Numbers invites you into our community to listen and find shared experiences.

You’ll hear calls for change, see celebrations of togetherness, and experience the power of creative spaces that build community.

There are lots of ways to experience the installation, from booking a tour to joining our community celebration day.

 

For group bookings on Tuesday – Friday, please email community@mind-the-gap.org.uk to book your slot.  There are hour-long sessions at 10.15, 11.45, 1.45 and 3.15.

For Saturday’s Community Day, please book your free ticket via Eventbrite here.

What does the installation do?

It tells our stories of community, solidarity and the power of our own voices.

What will I experience?

Expect giant creative sculptures, songs of protest, community-led action and rebellion.

How might I feel?

Safe and less isolated, freedom as part of a community, collective power.

Strength in Numbers represents a collective of voices. All work has been co-created with learning disabled and autistic people from across Bradford.
