Development Appeal

We are delighted to report that thanks to the generosity of all our supporters we are now able to move forward with the development of the new wing. The wing is an exciting four-floored extension into a period building adjacent to the gallery that will provide:

• A large practical studio, able to accommodate a full class of 30 pupils
• A seminar space, which will also double as a digital studio.
• An access gallery that will explore aspects of the collection and its archive and make connections between the works in the house and the contemporary exhibition programme
• Art store

We have commissioned award winning London-based architect Jamie Forbet to create the extension, whose 2003 Anderson House near Oxford Circus won an RIBA award for best house in the UK, and the RIBA and English Heritage Award for a Building in a Historical Context.

The new wing will ensure that Kettle's Yard is better able to make a difference to people's lives, providing a stimulating learning environment that engages all visitors, and provides them with a memorable, inspirational, and enjoyable experience.
