At a time when newspapers are disappearing or are contaminated with the need to sell advertising space through clickbait articles, pop-up adverts for online services and a public lust for soundbytes - Hyde Park Art Club are delighted to present a durational Summer Season of free press and roaming ideas as antidote, delivered at Hyde Park Book Club by The Wrangthorn Enquirer.

These are some of the guiding principles of The Wrangthorn Enquirer, the radical community press that will infiltrate and document Hyde Park Book Club and its surroundings this summer.

Join us for the annual celebration of Kirkstall artists and makers on the Kirkstall Art Trail!

This year Hollybush will be Venue 33, hosting 19 artists and makers in our barn, classroom, roundhouse and gardens, so do drop in if you can over the weekend. 

Discover the rich collection of British land art in Leeds Sculpture Collections. With work by Tacita Dean (b.1965), Hamish Fulton (b. 1946), Anya Gallaccio (b.1963), Andy Goldsworthy (b.1956), John Hilliard (b.1945) and David Nash (b.1945) this display reappraises land art and considers how it continues to shape our understanding of landscape.

For centuries, sculpture has been a site of encounter between history, myth and materials. Fragment and Form continues this by bringing together three contemporary artists Emii Alrai (b. 1993), Mónica Mays (b. 1990), Dominique White (b. 1993) in an exhibition that explores heritage, displacement and the ways in which personal and collective histories are preserved, marginalised and contested through materiality. 

Come to our latest exhibition and see the work of celebrated artist, Deborah Harrison.

Many Hands is Sunny Bank Mills Gallery’s first major group photography exhibition. Created in collaboration with Working Class Creatives, the show explores the role that industry plays in shaping community, identity and tradition. The exhibition weaves together stories of working-class people from the 70s to present, through the lens of a selection of UK based artists.
