About

The newly revamped permanent exhibition in the museum’s Kodak Gallery will shine a light on Bradford’s influential Belle Vue Studio, where thousands of the city’s residents had their photograph taken between the 1920s – 1970s. The new exhibition is in partnership with Bradford Council’s Museums and Galleries Service and has been funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The exhibition will showcase a recreation of the Belle Vue Studio, telling the fascinating story of Bradford’s very own photographic history and the important role of the studio in documenting the lives of the city’s inhabitants during a century of great societal change.
