Small but interesting - they do have a good display on at the moment as well. I was a little out off though. I was asked to put a mask on, even though wearing my mask exception tag, I’ve had to stop wearing one as I’m incredibly heavily pregnant and keep having bad Braxton Hicks that I have to breath through. The staff member was ok about it but it made me very anxious and feel really guilty.
This library is a sculpture lovers dream. In all my years of going to Leeds I have always seen this place but never did I really explore what was to be. I am re thinking of adding sculptures to my private interests once again and wanted to see what it was all about. Thankfully not only do they have access t0 some great books/pamphlets etc. They also hold regular exhibitions. Although I am a classic man myself it's great to see the library offering variety. Will definitely be back again.
The exhibit was large with some great work to see. This could also be it's one flaw as it's focus seems to be around quanitity rather than quality. Nevertheless there are some real gems within the gallery that make it really worthwhile. There is also a really beautiful cafeteria nearby to get some nice food if you fancy a break. Very nice thing to do on a rainy day in Leeds
Got talked into an afternoon of culture, so popped into this sculpture gallery. I was actually impressed with exhibitions on display, even if somewhat limited by the current pandemic. The staff are nice and informative and the gallery is quite a relaxing place too. Naturally, you have to provide your contact trace details, apply handgel and wear a face mask, but that did not affect the time I enjoyed here, definitely recommend this gallery. Parking for obvious reasons is an issue, but I found somewhere quite close and entry is free
Beautiful glass sculptures, shame there wasn't more as my 10yo son found them interesting too. Fun in the kaleidoscope workshop!
Had time to kill in Leeds so popped in to the institute. Current exhibition of Portable Sculpture was fascinating, and I'm sure my pictures don't do it justice! Well worth a visit.
A lovely and calm space, with great exhibitions. Right next to Leeds Art Gallery, in the city centre. Close to the train station. Well worth a visit!
Terrible. Dreadful. Totes unamazeballs. What a watse of a nice building filling it with junk. What a waste of money. If this passes for art then call me picasso. Even though admission was free i still want a refund. My wife was just as unimpressed, she almost dumped me for taking her to look around the place. Be warned.
It's small exhibition place but still really worth to visit!
A great place to spend an hour if you're stuck for something to do in Leeds...it's free entry x
