Our exhibitions and events are completely free to access, and open to all. Inside the Bonington Building, you’ll find our main gallery space, the Bonington Vitrines – micro-exhibitions in display cases, a cabinet showcasing highlights from our archive, and satellite exhibitions in our atrium space. As well as our exhibitions, we offer an events programme of talks, workshops, film screenings and performances. If you can’t make it to the Gallery then don’t worry, there are plenty of online events for you to join from wherever in the world you are.
Founded in 1969, Bonington Gallery has been at the forefront of Nottingham’s rich and vibrant visual arts community for over fifty years, offering an innovative and dynamic programme of local, national, and international significance.
Situated at the heart of Nottingham Trent University’s (NTU) School of Art & Design, the Gallery is surrounded by students and staff making, critiquing, designing and researching across a wide range of creative disciplines. This ‘art school’ context is reflected throughout our
multi-disciplinary programme of exhibitions and events – presenting and exploring practices related to visual art, fashion, film, music and design. Beyond our building, our connections with colleagues in academic subject areas help ground our programme and thinking within past, present and future cultural and societal discourse.
