Join us for this exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the Into the Stores exhibition and find out more about life as a curator.
Learn about the challenges and rewards of working with masterpieces every day and see rarely seen paintings and drawings from the Ferens’ stores. As well as getting up close and personal with works on paper by famous artists such as Rembrandt and William Hogarth, we’ll reveal works by lesser-known artists that deserve to have their stories told.
There will also be an opportunity to watch an object handling demonstration along with the chance to discuss the development of the exhibition with the curators.
Wednesday 25 February, 2pm-3pm.
Booking essential.
