Skippko at Sunny Bank

14th July 2022 @ 10:00 am - 17th July 2022 @ 4:00 pm

Since October 1988, Skippko has been one of Leeds’ leading visual arts organisations specialising in engagement, advocacy, bringing communities together; enabling the lives of ordinary people in Leeds to be celebrated, marked…and remembered.

During the first lockdown March 2020, when many of Skippko’s artist’s work dried up overnight, they commissioned all 18 of their artists to reflect on creativity during lockdown and isolation.

From 14 – 17 July you can explore the results of this commission on the first floor of our iconic 1912 Mill.

With photography, print, textiles, audio, animation, sculpture and performance, it’s going to be a diverse and fascinating show.
