Friends of the Whitworth Showcase
!It is 85 years since the original Friends met at Sir Thomas Barlow’s house to set up the Friends of the Whitworth Society. To celebrate this amazing achievement we wanted to do something special and SHOWCASE the work of our wonderful volunteers, past and present.
So, on April 11th, after our Annual General Meeting, and starting at 6pm, we will be TAKING OVER THE WHITWORTH GALLERY for the night!
Here’s what’s on offer
- Music from our friends at the RNCM. Programme to be announced.
- A special performance of Ruskin in Manchester with the Friends of the Whitworth Players!
- A display in the Study Centre of some of the thousands of works acquired with the help of the Friends over the decades.
- A drop-in print workshop where you can make your own print of the Whitworth’s Anya Gallaccio Tree.
- An Art Sale, a chance to acquire a work for your walls.
- Friends on Tour-a chance to see where the Friends have been and what they have got up to on our wonderful events programme.
- A drop in Look Club-we don’t just look, we talk-and learn!
- Meet the Director and hear Alistair Hudson’s vision for the Gallery.
- A living history-memories and objects that will bring back the past.
It's going to be a great evening, and it's all FREE!
Put the date in your diary. Tell your friends. BE THERE!
