Impressions Gallery

The forthcoming government cuts to the Science Museum Group's (SMG) annual funding will have a massive impact on the daily running of four of the UK's most visited Museums. Led by the Science Museum in London, the SMG also includes the National Railway Museum in York, the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester and the National Media Museum in Bradford.

In a landmark partnership, Impressions Gallery is depositing its archive with the National Media Museum. It will become part  of the National Photography Collection, where it will be titled as  'Impressions Gallery Archive' and receive the highest standards of collections management. It is believed to be the first time a publically funded photography gallery will have its archive cared for and made accessible by a national institution.

Impressions Gallery are delighted to announce their success in securing a lottery grant of £96,000 from Arts Council England, to deliver a groundbreaking project taking high quality art to children in schools throughout Bradford.

One of Impressions' most popular exhibitions in recent years is on view at the People's History Museum in Manchester from 9 March to 29 September 2013.

Red Saunders’ epic photographic tableaux vivants (‘living pictures’) recreate momentous but overlooked events from Britain’s struggle for democracy and equality, from the Peasants Revolt of 1381 to the Chartist movement of the mid nineteenth century.
