📢 We have some important news. After ten years here at The Tetley, we’ll be leaving our iconic building at the end of the year, as our lease comes to an end.

Since opening as an art gallery in 2013, we’ve welcomed nearly a million visitors through our doors – and we’re immensely proud of everything we’ve achieved here.

We’ve presented 56 exhibitions, (including Yorkshire’s only Turner-prize winner!) and worked with more than 1200 artists – based locally, nationally and internationally.

As well as our free exhibitions, and a busy events schedule of weddings, conferences and celebrations, we also pride ourselves on engaging with our local communities.

In the last year alone, our under 5s play space, Tiny Tetley Studio, has welcomed more than 10,000 young children, parents and carers, and our participation programme has engaged with 14,000 people.

ℹ️ What you need to know ℹ️

The Tetley’s on site exhibition programme ends on Sunday 22 October 2023, with shows by artists Afra Eisma and Richy Carey.

The Tetley Bar & Kitchen will also close from 22 October 2023.

In November and December, the building will open for a series of building takeovers by community initiatives and festivals such as Baby Week Leeds.

The Tetley will then close to the public from 17 December onwards.

In 2024, our artistic programme will move off site.

We will announce exciting plans for a new home soon – so watch this space for news about our future.

📢 Visit us 📢

We can’t wait to welcome you to The Tetley for your final chance to experience our exhibitions, play in Tiny Tetley Studio and enjoy fantastic food and drink in our Bar & Kitchen.

❤️ We also of course want to say thank you to the hundreds of thousands of people who’ve visited us over the last ten years, and to the team, the artists and the communities at the heart of the organisation.

⏪ We’ll be looking back over the last ten years and saying our many thank yous on our social media channels over the next few months.
