We are back in Stoke-on-Trent City Centre (Hanley) this Autumn with our FREE programme of art to get your taste buds sizzling once again!

As the daylight starts to dim at this time of year come along to enjoy our illuminated art, from gigantic metal tripods to art pieces beaming from cubes.

All our activities are COVID-Safe with social distancing measures in place. Please help us keep everyone safe by:
