Gallery Babies

Gallery Babies Thursday 4 June 2026, 10am - 12pm Free | Pre-booking required | Sold Out Burton Gallery Drop-in sensory play sessions every Thursday during term-time, for pre-walking babies and their grown-ups, set in the atmospheric surroundings of York Art Gallery. Using our beautiful sensory toolkit, a collection of colourful squishy sculptural objects, sessions will be gently facilitated, exploring shape, colour and texture. Gallery Babies is a welcoming and supportive space to relax, bond with your baby and meet other parents and carers, providing a bit of calm and care to your daily routine. The session starts at 10am and finishes at 12pm, but you can drop in and out at any time. Even after the session has finished, our sensory toolkit will be out in the Burton Gallery for you to continue to explore with your baby. These sessions are designed for pre-walking babies; however, we understand that you may have your hands full with more than one child. The session takes place in the Studio, a space with plenty of room to play, read and eat much needed snacks outside of the galleries if needed. Buggy parking and baby changing facilities available. We are also offering a special offer in Sketch café for anybody attending a session: Hot drink and cake £7.00 and lunch and drink £15.00. Please note: Participants must have a pre-booked ticket to attend the session. Gallery Babies admission includes free access to the permanent gallery spaces, tickets for temporary exhibitions...

Reignite XV

Join us for Reignite XV: Liftoff: Breaking In & Building Forward. The event takes place on 4th June from 6pm to 9pm at Temple Hall, York St John University. This year, we’re doing something different. In partnership with York St John Art & Design, Liftoff brings together over 150 new works from the next generation of creatives – a powerful snapshot of emerging talent at the very moment it steps into the world, alongside high-profile artists, such as Turner Prize nominee Heather Philipson, Larry Achiampong, Steve Messam, Joanne Coates, and Baff Akoto. Together, we are building an ecosystem that actively supports growth. One that connects education to industry, talent to opportunity, and ambition to infrastructure. Most importantly, one that makes it clear: this city is a place where creative careers can begin, grow, and thrive. Book your place HERE.
