Fashionistas of Leeds, prepare yourself for an unforgettable experience and join us for the upcoming Victoria Leeds Fashion Show. This unmissable event will be staged in the iconic Victoria Quarter under the splendour of its famed stained-glass ceiling. Set amongst a backdrop of beautiful Victorian architecture, the event will showcase the latest Summer 2025 fashion trends and accessories from your favourite luxury brands and retailers, whilst being entertained by some of Yorkshire’s finest artists and performers.

Join us for a relaxing, family-friendly creative session where we’ll be painting kindness rocks, small stones decorated with colourful designs, uplifting messages, or nature-inspired art. This simple, joyful activity is open to all and suitable for any age or ability.

You’re welcome to take your finished rock with you on a gentle walk through Bramley Park or along the canal. It’s a lovely way to continue the creativity, spend time outdoors and brighten someone’s day.

There will be a selection of non-alcoholic drinks and snacks available on a donation basis. We welcome anyone who identifies as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, either solo or as a group. There will be volunteers on hand to help you settle into the social environment.
