Nottinghamshire's Rainbow Heritage 18th -23rd February



Nottinghamshire's Rainbow Heritage returned to the gallery to present a display of work produced to raise awareness of gay, lesbian, transexual, bisexual history and continuing issues. With much new research and archive material, this year's exhibition was a vibrant and fascinatingly detailed display. With much media interest from local press and a huge number of visitors over the week. It is a successful project which promises to grow and develop a much needed archive for the communities in Nottinghamshire.

Pre Raphaelites Revisited 18th -23rd February

Art Deco Studio presented an exhibition of photographs on canvas in our small gallery inspired by pre-raphaelite master paintings.

They received a tremendous response from visitors and lots of media coverage for the tricky photographic process which John Knight undertook. See BBC Nottingham's article here.
