PURANI YAADEIN – CAPTURING HERITAGE


  • Bradford Library Centenary Square BD1 1SD (map)

An exhibition of heritage communities on a series of pull up banners exploring desi heritage and community.

The Purani Yaadein project was formed through a suggestion by young people to capture the history of their parents and grand-parents and ensure we retained these memories for future generations.

It is focused on preserving the heritage created by the arrival of the Pakistani / Kashmiri community in Leeds and the surrounding areas, from the arrival of settlers in the 1950s through to the current period. The heritage project aims to preserve the memories and record the contribution made by this community to the city.
