Hive is a community arts charity in Shipley, Bradford. We deliver arts and crafts courses, workshops and projects from our centre in Shipley and across Bradford District.
We believe that creativity contributes to good health and well-being and helps to bring communities together.
"Hive offers a vitally important service in the community whereby anyone of any ability can attempt to learn new crafts, explore the arts and be creative in an encouraging environment"
Great place to learn with like minded people, booked again for next course, highly recommend.
"Hive is very supportive and flexible, there is a drop in service as well as tutor-run courses and user led events. It is a very supportive community; there are opportunities to be involved in all sorts of ways"
My visit to Hive was very pleasant: nice, friendly and helpful people.
Loved my time here hopefully going to go back to give back help to others.
Fantastic place with amazing workers who support and encourage everyone to explore their artistic side.
