A new mixed media exhibition is now open at Millenium Gallery, demonstrating ‘art’s great power to speak to our lives’.
New Horizons: Growing Sheffield’s Art Collection will run until 25 January 2026, and includes work by renowned artists such as Lubna Chowdhary, Grayson Perry, Bridget Riley, Mark Wallinger and more.
Entry to the gallery is free, with a suggested donation of £5.
Sheffield Museums is a charity and has to fundraise to acquire artworks for the city’s collection, which was founded 150 years ago.
Many extraordinary works have found their home in the city thanks to generous gifts from artists and collectors, thoughtful bequests, and the support of established organisations in the arts sector.
Katie Irwin, Exhibitions Curator at Sheffield Museums said: “People can access and find inspiration in a dazzling array of world-class art right here, on their doorstep. This exhibition is a celebration of generosity and art’s incredible ability to help us see the world anew and to inspire visitors to recognise their own creative potential.”
Over at the Graves Gallery, the exhibition is complemented by displays that showcase the full breadth of the city’s art collection, with over 250 works spanning the centuries through to the present day.
