This event is part of Outlines, Bradford's LGBTQ+ Arts Festival supported by The Leap in partnership with Arts Council England, Creative People and Places, Bradford Council and Bradford UK City of Culture 2025.
We are delighted to collaborate once again with the lovely folks at OUT & Loud to bring back to Bradford by popular demand OUT & Brown, an open mic event focused on platforming QTPOC artists!
If you're an LGBTQ+ person of colour who is a musician, comedian, poet, performer, storyteller or any other type of artist that could do with a live audience to share work in front of then this event is for you!

Please note OUT & Brown is a dry event. Soft drinks, hot drinks and snacks will be available to purchase.
