The collection includes stunning examples of European and British painting, drawings and prints, dating from the 17th century up to the present day, as well as small collections of sculpture, ceramics, miniatures and photographs.
A new Education Room houses the University’s collection of drawings and works on paper, and provides space for educational activities - from University teaching to school and community group activities.
The Gallery offers a lively programme of public events - including artist talks, roundtable discussions, and art workshops. Join our mailing list to get invitations to our events and exhibitions.
