Channeling Your Anger Into Art

Learn to transform the creative and natural energy of anger into artistic expression and self acceptance.

In this immersive one-day workshop, you will be guided in a safe and supportive space to explore anger as a catalyst for creativity (as opposed to destruction) through a blend of experiential, body-based and art-focused exercises.

Picnic at Hanging Rock

On Valentine’s Day 1900, students from Appleyard College, a girls’ private school in Victoria, Australia, embark on a field trip to an unusual volcanic formation called Hanging Rock.

It’s not until the end of the day that the group realise that some of their party have mysteriously disappeared. Returning to the big screen to celebrate its 50th anniversary in a dazzling 4K restoration, Peter Weir’s adaptation of Joan Lindsay’s novel has lost none of its mystique or mesmerising power.

Study Afternoon: Queen Victoria

Join us for this study day to learn all about Queen Victoria's life, personality and achievements.

We are amused. Not just a serious old lady dressed in black and scowling at the camera, Queen Victoria had a long life full of many contradictions, from bright vivacious saviour of the monarchy to surviving 7 assassination attempts.

Join us to look at her early life, marriage and children, her visit to Leeds and her very own annus horribilus.

Enfolded Journeys

Enfolded Journeys is an open call touring exhibition of new artists’ books made in response to themes relating to travel, displacement, geographies and borders, and migration in recent times and in the past, and the effects of such movements of peoples.

28 artists from Leeds to Puerto Rico have created an array of engaging works that question our sense of place, home and the need to sometimes move on, whether compelled or voluntary.

In this unique and intimate exhibition displayed in the Victorian splendour of The Leeds Library, all of the art works can be handled.
