Leeds Arts Club
The Leeds Arts Club was founded in 1903 by the Leeds school teacher Alfred Orage and Yorkshire textile manufacture Holbrook Jackson, and was probably one of the most advanced centres for modernist (modernism) thinking in Britain in the pre-First World War period. Its very existence challenges the idea that radical art and culture only happens in metropolitan centres.
