Exhibition opportunities at Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery

Due to demand there is current opportunity available to exhibit at Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery. The proposed space for the exhibition is in the foyer area, in the ground floor space, the idea is that it uses the walkway area of the museum instead of the typical gallery room areas.

The space would be best suited to an installation, a 3D piece, or film projection. The idea of the exhibition is for it to explore the impact of World War 2 on Plymouth, however with the integration of the history of the museum in some way, perhaps its architecture and context in history. The educational potential within the exhibit must be considered, as well as the potential for interaction with viewers – this will be central as it will be in the main foyer area.

There are many possibilities and exciting opportunities within this proposed exhibition, research will be needed and visits to the Museum are much encouraged and will be invaluable when proposing work for the specific space.
