For this wonderful exhibitions Year 5 pupils from 11 schools across Greater Manchester have been working with artists Andy Field, Beckie Darlington and Rosabel Tan to curate a sprawling collection of knowledge, advice, jokes, memories and objects.

What would you leave behind for children 100 years from now? What is it like in 2125? Is it full of people? Does it get busy?

Come along to explore An Inheritance – and contribute some knowledge or advice of your own before it’s locked away for 100 years.
