AWAY DAY: NOTTINGHAM Thursday 14 June, 10.30–9pm

For our Away Day in Nottingham we will visited galleries, projects and institutions in the city, meeting with curators, organisers and artists along the way. We rounded off the day with a visit Primary Lates in the evening to see a whole host of exhibitions and events.

This was a great opportunity to meet new people and find out about the art ecology of this vibrant city. As well as major institutions like Nottingham Contemporary, the city’s arts community has a well established history of developing artist-led studio and project spaces many of which were set up by graduates from Nottingham Trent University.
