Description
Public Gallery is the UK’s first truly participatory art gallery, dedicated to making change through art and participation. Visitors physically enter interactive artworks and it is their presence and actions that complete them.
With an international programme of permanent and temporary exhibitions and events, we are at the heart of The Public, an iconic building designed by architect Will Alsop that offers a significant new cultural space to the Black Country region and to Britain. Opening summer 2008.
