About this Event
In celebration of Black History Month, the RBE ED&I Working Group are planning a group visit to the Barbara Walker: Being Here exhibition at the Whitworth Art Gallery.
This major exhibition will bring together over 70 works spanning Walker’s career from the 1990s to today, including her Turner Prize nominated portrait series Burden of Proof (2022-23) and rarely seen drawings. The display will include a new commission focusing on the Windrush generation and in response to the Whitworth’s collection of historic drawings and wallpaper.
The group visit will take place on 30th October, 15:15 – 16:00pm, with the following itinerary:
- 15:15: leave from outside Christie building and walk together to Whitworth Art Gallery
- 15:30: arrive at gallery and visit the exhibition
- 16:00: post-exhibition chat and coffee at the Whitworth café
If you would like to attend please reserve a spot so that we can advise the Whitworth of our group size in advance.
All RBE colleagues are welcome. Hope to see many of you there!
