We’ve been asking staff to recall their fondest memories of the museum. Audience Development and Volunteer Coordinator Mandy Tennant reminds us why this is such a great place to work.
Get a glimpse behind the scenes of the museum, see hidden treasures from our amazing collection and hear the inside story from our curators, archivists and special guests.
Throughout this month, we’ve been counting down to our 30th birthday, and now it’s finally here!
Dick Vaughan arrived in 1983 to organise the installation of the first permanent IMAX cinema in Europe. 30 years later he’s still here, and still fascinated by the technology.
Brian Liddy looks back at the Museum Exile of 1997—when all the objects in our collection (along with their curators) went on an adventure to Halifax.
Deb Singleton, Director of Bradford Animation Festival, looks back at some of the highlights of the last 20 years of BAF.

It takes a lot of work to develop the interactive exhibits you see at the museum. Audience Researcher Catherine Elvin looks at how we test them.
Getting the opportunity to work on a brand new gallery doesn’t happen very often. Creating video content for Life Online presented an exciting challenge for our team.
Meet Joe Brook, our Life Online Project Leader, to hear more about the inspiration behind the new space—and see a sneak preview.
