Drop-in Art Activities in the Gallery Café
Come and use our materials and create something to take away in response to the themes of the exhibition. You are invited to play with colour and texture by weaving your very own artwork, get stuck in with some collage and design your own patterns.

Community Weave in the Gallery
Learn more about weaving techniques with artist Nicola Moody and contribute to a large woven hanging piece using recycled materials. Everyone is invited to add to this growing artwork and explore the language of textiles by experimenting with different knots, unravelling and fraying.

Weaving Relations Exhibition by Nicola Moody
The postgraduate artist has examined the relationship between a line of thread and the weaving process. Using anthropologist Tim Ingold's ideas, Nicola Moody explores how lines interact together within weaving. Join the Exhibition Tour to hear more about the themes and ideas behind the work.

Self-Guided Sculpture Walk
Grab a Sculpture Map from the gallery desk and take a refreshing walk around campus to explore the outdoor sculptures for yourself! The Sculpture Walk forms part of the University Art Collection and presents an eclectic group of works which map the changing characteristics of British Sculpture since the 1950s.
