July Events at the Stanley & Audrey Burton Gallery

What better way to spend those rainy summer weekends than with a trip to the Gallery? There are lots of activities to interest and inspire you, including a talk with Literary Archivist Sarah Prescott (14 July), showing unique manuscripts from Special Collections' fantastic literary archives by writers and poets including the Brontës, Elizabeth Gaskell, Graham Greene, Tony Harrison and Simon Armitage.

Later into the month, there's a felt-making workshop (21 July) with Hayley McColl and an origami-making workshop (28 July) to celebrate the end of the Gallery's 'Paper Trails: Treasures on Paper' (2 May - 28 July) exhibition, where we'll be throwing down the gauntlet to visitors as we attempt to make something close to one thousand paper cranes!

So why not get involved or check the website for further details: http://www.leeds.ac.uk/gallery/events.htm
