Art In Media Event
Bradford College in association with the Bradford Kickstart programme has launched the Bradford Enterprise Roadshow. Business enterprise and entrepreneurship is being actively encouraged in the Bradford area and its surrounding communities.
This roadshow is a series of free events which aim to generate interest and awareness and inspire excitement about enterprise.
The first event was dedicated to Art & Media and was held on 9th October 2009 from 9:30 am to 4:00 pm at the college’s Yorkshire Craft Centre and Henry Mitchell Hall.
The event was opened to everyone and the day was packed with presentations, entertainment, business exhibits, seminars and workshops.

During the event, representatives from different organisations were available to offer information on self employment, starting up a business, skill and training opportunities. People also had an opportunity to speak to individuals from different types of businesses about their early days and benefit from various types of seminars and hands-on workshops.
The event was opened at 9:45am by Doug Stott, Bradford College Finance Director, followed by a presentation by Curtis Jobling, our celebrity guest speaker. Curtis Jobling is an author and illustrator based in the UK. Working in publishing and animation he is possibly most famously known as the designer of the BAFTA winning BBC show Bob The Builder, as well as creator of Frankenstein’s Cat.
It was a very busy but enjoyable day. People were surprised by variety and quality of presentations and workshops.
