Andrew Wild: All We Ever Wanted Was Everything
We welcome Andrew Wild back to Globe Arts, for his first solo exhibition in The Long Wall Gallery.
all we ever wanted was everything runs from 21 February until 28 March 2026.
all we ever wanted was everything is a new body of work from West Yorkshire-based contemporary artist Andrew Wild. Taking direct influence from the post-Industrial Calder Valley, Wild’s works poetically reflect the ephemeral minutiae of transient and incidental scuffs and marks; of scratched walls and weathered surfaces.
Reducing his materials to the fundamentals of conventional artistic practice - to graphite and paper, pigments and canvas - Wild has developed subtle, richly layered and delicately constructed works that document a tactile, material-focused exploration of Time, Place, and Self.
Gallery opening hours:
Mon 10–5 | Thurs 10–5 | Sat 9.30–1

Deborah Gardner: The Weight of Your Heart
This Spring, we welcome Deborah Gardner to The Long Wall Gallery.
The Weight of Your Heart runs from 4 April until 2 May 2026.
Deborah Gardner is a narrative, abstract artist based at Starlorn Gallery in Byram Arcade, Huddersfield. Garden has been making art for over 40 years, combining colours, shapes, symbols, collage and words in an almost conceptional way, a type of visual iconography.
I feel my paintings are beyond words, yet they contain memories and emotions where I am trying to express myself. I use my art to articulate what I see and feel: a means to visualize my inner self.
The work for the exhibition “The Weight of Your Heart”, has been created specifically for The Long Gallery @ Globe Arts. The work is my response to current events around the world, strongly influenced by images seen in the news and social media. I struggle with how unkind humans are to each other and I wanted to use my art to reflect this thinking.
The Weight of Your Heart runs from 4 April until 2 May 2026.
Join us to celebrate the opening of The Weight of Your Heart on Saturday 4 April, from 2pm onwards. We’d love to welcome you for chats, drinks and nibbles.
Gallery opening hours:
Mon 10–5 | Thurs 10–5 | Sat 9.30–1

Claire Murray & Alison Wren: Grounded
This Winter, Grounded finds its home in The Long Wall Gallery.
Grounded brings together painter Claire Murray and ceramicist Alison Wren in a contemplative dialogue between landscape and form, surface and substance.
Claire Murray is an expressive painter based in Fletcher’s Mill, Dean Clough in Halifax. Claire has been painting for 37 years, teaching art and running her own studio practice, and has work in private collections internationally.
Alison Wren graduated in Ceramic Design in the 1990's and then worked in a contemporary craft gallery for many years, before setting up her own practice in 2016. Since then she has produced tableware for Michelin-starred chefs and sells her work at fairs and galleries throughout the UK.
Both artists draw deeply from the natural world — its textures, tones and quiet harmonies. Claire’s layered, expressive paintings capture the shifting light, drama and vastness of the northern landscape, while Alison’s wheel-thrown stoneware distils that same connection to nature into calm, balanced forms with subtle, earthy glazes.
Together, their work explores a shared sense of stillness and presence — one rooted in the elements of air and light, the other in earth and clay. Grounded invites viewers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the material beauty of the world around us.
Gallery opening hours:
Mon 10–5 | Thurs 10–5 | Sat 9.30–1
That's Life Exhibition
Join us for the opening Saturday 22nd November at 2pm, to view the work of our fantastic life drawing clients, from the past few terms here at Globe Arts.

Joe Tully: AutoPlay.
Returning to our friends at Zapato this summer, we proudly present AutoPlay., a curated selection of paintings by Yorkshire-based artist Joe Tully.
Created over the past five years, Autoplay. draws from life before and after fatherhood, capturing moments of emotional chaos, quiet reflection, and surreal humour.
Tully’s art blends romantic street scenes, cluttered interiors, and pop imagery into expressive, layered compositions. Working instinctively, he builds each piece from fragments of memory, music, and modern life — sometimes loud, sometimes painfully still.
This exhibition offers a glimpse into a restless creative mind trying to make sense of time, parenthood, and the strange beauty of the everyday.
🎉 Celebrate 10 Years of Globe Arts! 🎨
Sunday 24th August | Zapato, Holme Mills Gardens & The Long Wall Gallery

Joe Tully is a Huddersfield-born artist whose vibrant, expressive work blends bold colour with emotional intensity. After initially dropping out of Leeds College of Art, Joe went on to earn a First Class Degree in Advertising. Joe began painting in 2016 to fund his studies. His art has since appeared on BBC’s Ackley Bridge and in commercial campaigns.
Influenced by Basquiat, Lowry, Hockney, Guston, and Matisse, Joe’s paintings fuse raw energy with vivid contrasts, capturing everyday moments through a uniquely personal lens.

Tim Tudor: Floating Worlds
We are welcoming back Tim Tudor, a painter and sculptor based at Sculpture lounge studios, Holmfirth.
We enjoyed having ‘Floating Worlds’ in our Carr Lane gallery so much that we knew we had to bring Tim back for the launch of The Long Wall Gallery!
Tim presents two distinct yet complimentary sets of recent works under the title 'Floating Worlds'. One is a series of small skyscapes inspired by a thought experiment entitled 'look up’. The other is a set of four oil paintings Tim started in lockdown that form a body of work entitled 'crystal dimensions.' Both bodies of work Tim sees as long term and on going projects.
Join us on Friday 6th June, 7pm onwards for the launch of The Long Wall Gallery and the return of Floating Worlds, plus guest artists!
The Long Wall Gallery will be open from 10am - 1pm on Thursdays and Saturdays.

Super Seconds Sunday - 9th March 2025
Support Local at Super Seconds Sunday
Join us for our 4th Super Seconds Sunday, a new(ish) concept which we are running in order to help support our building, artist studio holders and local makers.
Come along on 9th March 2025 between 11am-2pm (well behaved dogs are allowed too!) and buy from local artists and makers.
For anyone that doesn’t already know, we currently support 11 micro businesses within our studios and are very proud of the broad range of creatives who operate from them.
With the costs of running a business increasing, we are now looking at different ways of supporting our studio holders by holding a community event, open to everyone.
On the second Sunday of every 3rd month, our doors will be open to the public in which you can come and purchase creatives’ “seconds” and artist materials. Held in our Create Space on New Street side of our building, double grey doors next to Destination.
A ‘creative second’ might look like an accidental fingerprint on a print, an upturned corner on a photograph, a re-fused glass keyring, or a ceramic bowl with the wrong coloured glaze on it. Basically any slight imperfection on a handmade which usually means it can’t be sold as easily, by the artist.
The event will help to save these pieces from being forgotten about in a cupboard or studio, getting them out into the world - living out the rest of their days in your homes!
This market is for creatives only, who are selling seconds or materials they may use in their own work.
STALLHOLDERS – there are a limited amount of stalls, available for £10. If you want to join us- book your stall and find out more information via our Art Shop or the BOOK EVENT button at the bottom of this page.

Join us at Globe Arts to celebrate Moonraking with our family-friendly window lantern workshops.
David Coldwell
View captured feelings from David Coldwell, in his new exhibition over at Zapato Taproom, running until 22nd February 2025.
I am a painter, writer and photographer based in West Yorkshire. My paintings and photographs have featured in a number of publications. I have published two books and co-edited two poetry collections. My paintings have been exhibited widely across the UK and are held in private collections.
Developing new skills and exploring different techniques has continued to enhance my expertise both as a painter and photographer.
I now work from a studio in the centre of Slaithwaite – a thriving village which you can find midway between Leeds and Manchester.
The painting process:
It may be memory or a ghost.
The desire is to capture a feeling, focusing on composition with a limited colour palette. Soon the painting will enter the experimental stage. This part of the process is like the wind: unpredictable, challenging. Sometimes the destination becomes unclear. Colours are mixed with glazes to create texture, depth and atmosphere. The trick is knowing when you have reached the destination.
Decorated Skin
Call out for photographers!
Want to be a part of our 'Decorated Skin' exhibition in 2025? We want to hear from photographers who will work collaboratively with other local artists to produce a group show that explores the way we decorate our bodies.
Interested? Come in to the Slaithwiate Studio, email admin@globearts.org.uk, or drop us a message on Insta!

Join Jackie & Zoe on this full day trip to The National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, London -

We will be travelling to London with Stotts Coaches on Thursday 12th December, leaving from Globe Arts Studio, at 7am - please arrive at 6.45am. Due to the number of tickets we are selling, it would be very helpful if you could either walk to us/ get dropped off/ come in a car with other people joining us for the trip- just so we don’t take up the majority of Slaithwaite’s car parking spots!
The driver has allotted up to 5 hours of travel time in each direction, so be sure to bring bottled water, and we will be in contact closer to the time about their food and hot drink policy whilst on board, toilet facilities etc.
Once we arrive at The National Gallery, we will have an hour or so to get some food from the Gallery cafe or surrounding cafes, plus look at the general exhibitions/ displays inside.
As we have 50 tickets in our Globe Arts Trip group, we’ll be split into 2 for the experience. At 1.30pm, half of our group will go into the VG exhibition, and the other half will follow at 1.45pm, they suggest we allow 50–60 minutes for the experience.
Between 2.30-4.30pm the Globees will be heading over to the National Portrait Gallery, 1 minute walk away, and you are more than welcome to come with us, or feel free to spend the extra time in the National Gallery.
We will be gathering at the arranged meeting point at 4.45pm, and getting back onto the coach to set off at 5pm. Once on the coach, we will have a group discussion about our favourite part of the experience and pass our sketchbooks around!
Arriving back at Globe Arts Studio around 10pm
We are releasing our tickets in the following order;
1st release to Friends Of Globe and our staff, the Globees
2nd release to all current clients
3rd release to the general mailing list

Trafford Parsons: REBEL
The art show "Rebel," featuring work by Trafford Parsons, is a powerful exploration of rebellion in its many forms, celebrating iconic figures who have defied norms and shaped culture. The inspiration behind this show stems from Parsons' deep admiration for those who challenge the status quo, whether in music, film, or society at large. With a particular focus on musical rebels, Parsons’ work in "Rebel" pays tribute to the boundary-pushers who have left an indelible mark on the world.
The show also features other portraits of musical rebels, each rendered in Parsons' signature style—vivid colors, sharp contrasts, and a mix of pop culture with deeper, often subversive, commentary. Parsons captures the raw energy and attitude of these figures, using bold lines and vibrant hues to reflect their impact on music and culture.
"Rebel" is more than just an art show; it's a celebration of those who dare to be different, who challenge conventions, and who inspire others to do the same. Through his work, Parsons not only honors these rebels but also encourages viewers to embrace their own rebellious spirit. The show serves as a reminder that rebellion, in its truest form, is not just about defiance—it’s about the courage to be yourself, no matter the cost.
Join us for the preview on the 7th December, 4pm onwards. Our Christmas Art Market will be running from 11am to 5pm, so why not drop in and make a day of it!
