Exhibitions

Alongside our world-renowned collection, the Barber Institute has a changing programme of temporary exhibitions putting individual works of art into context with borrowed works. We also have changing displays from the Barber's print and drawing collection, including a growing collection of 20th-century works. The Education Gallery contains small exhibitions by contemporary artists, local school groups, and of seldom-seen works from the collection.
