Nottingham Cultural Trails
Head to some of Nottinghamshire’s excellent indoor cultural attractions and open your mind to enthralling experiences. Nottingham Contemporary, one of the largest galleries of contemporary art in the UK, is a perfect place to visit because the art isn’t just about paintings. The gallery is free to visit, and regularly hosts changing exhibitions that showcase incredible international art.
For literary fans, there are family friendly tours of the D.H. Lawrence Birthplace Museum where you can find out about the inspiration behind one of the 20th century’s most controversial novelists. It also provides an excellent insight into the lives of Victorian mining families. Read more about the tours in our blog.
If the weather turns a little chilly then why not snuggle up at Broadway cinema and catch one of the latest releases? Broadway boasts the world’s first (and only) Paul Smith-designed cinema auditorium, and a stunning glass front that can host digital art projections. The cinema regularly shows unique films that you may not be able to catch anywhere else.
Also, don't forget that there are exceptional events taking place throughout the year to keep you entertained. Check out our What’s On guide to find out more.
