All aboard for our Bussing Out UK Tour

Our exhibition which spotlights ‘bussing out’ – the social policy of dispersing non-white children in the 1960s and 1970s – has hit the road for a national tour thanks to The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Arts Council England funding.

Inside a vintage bus, the title Bussing Out by Shabina Aslam appears on misted windows, evoking journeys and stories of movement and belonging.

Bussing Out, an immersive art installation set in the top deck of a 70s bus, produced by University of Bradford-based arts organisation, Theatre in the Mill. The exhibition is touring six venues across England between November 2025 and March 2027 – Rotherham in November 2025, Halifax in January 2026, Blackburn in February 2026, Luton in April 2026, Southall, West London, in summer 2026 and Bristol is the final stop between January and March 2027.

The bus will be at each location for three to four weeks, with dates and venues to be confirmed in due course. Keep an eye on our social media channels for updates
