Spend an evening at Manchester Art Gallery as the gallery stays open late for a relaxed after-hours event.

Explore the exhibitions at your own pace and enjoy a programme of performances, pop-up events and creative activities. Highlights include performances of the popular short plays Ancient and Modern and Last Bus to Whitby, written and directed by Martin Paul Roche, alongside life drawing and more.

With a mix of free and ticketed events, there’s something for everyone. The bar, café and shop will also be open, making it a lovely way to experience the gallery after hours.
