attend one of our meals

Take part in one of our free meals hosted by our partners Blend Kitchen, SADACCA, and Foodhall. Bringing together people from across the city, we will explore responses to the ‘flood’, imagine our ark, and consider what we will take with us and what we will leave behind. These events are free to attend and will provide a warm and welcoming space for an open ended dialogue and an opportunity to meet new people. 

organise your own meal

You could also organise your own meal with your school, community group, or with family and friends.

Ark Bradford has been developed by Dr Tom Payne (Sheffield Hallam University) and collaborators as part of Bradford 2025, with creative and production support from Moot Works and producing support from an Associate Producer appointed through Propel Bradford.

 

The project builds on the methodology developed through Ark Sheffield (2022), led by Payne in collaboration with Dr Julia Udall and Dr Alex De Little, and presented in partnership with Sheffield Theatres as part of the Together in the City festival. Ark was originally conceived by Payne and first developed in Wales with support from National Theatre Wales. It has evolved through long-term artistic research into climate, water and community, and continues to adapt through collaboration with people and place. 

​Ark Bradford is produced by Moot Works, with funding from Bradford 2025, Bradford Producing Hub, Sheffield Hallam University, and the University of Bradford.

Ark Bradford is supported by Bradford Council, and a growing network of artists, organisers and community collaborators across the city. Special thanks to all those who have contributed to Ark Bradford through conversation, care, hospitality and creative insight, and to those who will gather at The Beacon for the Storm-Gathering on 4 September 2025.
