Gemma Hobbs

I make creative stuff happen! That’s my practice. It took me a long time to understand this, but now I do it’s very freeing.

I’ve dabbled in all sorts, but my first loves are building things (spaces and places), making things with others (community arts/activism) and curation (curating spaces and exhibitions). I’m very much rooted in Yorkshire. Bradford to be specific. And to zoom in even closer on the map… Manningham and Keighley.

These days I’m the manager and general-everywoman of a new arts charity in Keighley called Keighley Creative, which keeps me very busy! I’ve popped some links below if you’d like to know more.

AVA are such a creative, knowledgeable and supportive group of artists and makers, and I feel very lucky to be included amongst them.
