An iconic Leeds art gallery is to close in a matter of weeks after a shock announcement was posted on the organisation’s website.
“As well as our breathtaking programme of free exhibitions, and a busy events schedule of weddings, conferences and events, we also pride ourselves on engaging with our local communities.”
It added: “In the last year alone, the gallery’s under 5s play space, Tiny Tetley Studio, has welcomed more than 10,000 young children, parents and carers, and the gallery’s participation programme has engaged with 14,000 people, hosting community groups and organisations at the building and working offsite in south Leeds to bring creative projects to parks and community centres.”
In November and December, the building is expected to open for a series of “takeovers by community initiatives and festivals”, including Baby Week Leeds and BIG UP festival of art and social change, before closing for good on December 17. Its artistic programme is then expected to move off site in 2024, with projects like Inside Out, a new participatory art initiative to go ahead in collaboration with communities in Beeston and Beeston Hill.
