Dissent Works
Lancaster Arts is really excited to offer our first Open exhibition in many years! Over the summer we invited artists from across north Lancashire to submit artwork on the theme of dissent. The chosen works will be brought together with selections from the Lancaster University art collections to shape a dynamic, playful and provocative exhibition. It is an evolving collection and a living resource that inspires new conversations between artists, audiences and ideas. This exhibition will explore the many ways dissent can be expressed through artistic practice. It might be loud or quiet, public or personal, but at its heart is a willingness to ask whether things could be different. If you are an artist aged 18 and over who are based in north and west Lancashire and would be interested in showing work in the exhibition, applications are open until Monday 24 August 2026.
FRANKENSTEIN: Lancaster Footlights Present
Lancaster Footlights present FRANKENSTEIN By Nick Dear Based on the novel by Mary Shelley. When Frankenstein meets his creation for the first time, he is consumed by horror and disgust. Abandoning the Creature, he leaves him to navigate a world filled with prejudice and hostility. The Creature’s child-like innocence cannot withstand the rejection he faces, and his innate goodness gives way to a dark and vengeful malevolence. Determined to make his creator pay, the Creature sets out on a terrifying journey of revenge, seeking a single hope: a deal with Frankenstein that could mean his salvation. This gripping and unsettling Gothic tale explores enduring themes of scientific and medical responsibility, parental neglect, and the fragile boundary between good and evil. Infused with Steampunk and Gothic aesthetics, this production promises a theatrical experience that is as visually striking as it is emotionally powerful. Lancaster Footlights’ licence to present Nick Dear’s version of FRANKENSTEIN, from the novel by Mary Shelley, is granted by Rosica Colin Limited, London. Content Warning: This production includes a depiction of sexual violence. Age 15+

Peter Fillingham: Fruit Salad
In a year of celebrating sculpture, Lancaster Arts is delighted to invite renowned sculptor, Peter Fillingham to fill the Peter Scott Gallery with an explosion of colour. Fruit Salad brings together a collection of new and previously exhibited works that playfully explore ideas of dissent, and the vital role that art has in the world right now, valuing the unconventional and unruly, the vulnerable, makeshift and unfixed. Peter employs colour in every aspect of his work, often "found" colour, gently reminding us that the image of a glorious past is, indeed, a fantasy. The reality is one of multiplicity, joyful artifice and eccentricity. He hands us a fruit salad – messy, colourful and provocative. Peter has exhibited internationally and in the UK, often in project or artist-run spaces, village halls and places where art is integrated into everyday life. He is a collaborative artist who has worked with many different creative figures such as Tacita Dean, Rasheed Araeen, Charlotte Moth and Derek Jarman. "Peter loves to tell stories. He is a confluence of the oral traditions of both his parents, and of high and low art…as well as a great deal of humour and playfulness, camaraderie and spirit, sometimes mixed with a touch of whimsy." Tacita Dean, artist Please join us for our Season Celebration in the Peter Scott Gallery on 5 November at 5.30pm.

Peter Fillingham: Fruit Salad
In a year of celebrating sculpture, Lancaster Arts is delighted to invite renowned sculptor, Peter Fillingham to fill the Peter Scott Gallery with an explosion of colour. Fruit Salad brings together a collection of new and previously exhibited works that playfully explore ideas of dissent, and the vital role that art has in the world right now, valuing the unconventional and unruly, the vulnerable, makeshift and unfixed. Peter employs colour in every aspect of his work, often "found" colour, gently reminding us that the image of a glorious past is, indeed, a fantasy. The reality is one of multiplicity, joyful artifice and eccentricity. He hands us a fruit salad – messy, colourful and provocative. Peter has exhibited internationally and in the UK, often in project or artist-run spaces, village halls and places where art is integrated into everyday life. He is a collaborative artist who has worked with many different creative figures such as Tacita Dean, Rasheed Araeen, Charlotte Moth and Derek Jarman. "Peter loves to tell stories. He is a confluence of the oral traditions of both his parents, and of high and low art…as well as a great deal of humour and playfulness, camaraderie and spirit, sometimes mixed with a touch of whimsy." Tacita Dean, artist Please join us for our Season Celebration in the Peter Scott Gallery on 5 November at 5.30pm.

Peter Fillingham: Fruit Salad
In a year of celebrating sculpture, Lancaster Arts is delighted to invite renowned sculptor, Peter Fillingham to fill the Peter Scott Gallery with an explosion of colour. Fruit Salad brings together a collection of new and previously exhibited works that playfully explore ideas of dissent, and the vital role that art has in the world right now, valuing the unconventional and unruly, the vulnerable, makeshift and unfixed. Peter employs colour in every aspect of his work, often "found" colour, gently reminding us that the image of a glorious past is, indeed, a fantasy. The reality is one of multiplicity, joyful artifice and eccentricity. He hands us a fruit salad – messy, colourful and provocative. Peter has exhibited internationally and in the UK, often in project or artist-run spaces, village halls and places where art is integrated into everyday life. He is a collaborative artist who has worked with many different creative figures such as Tacita Dean, Rasheed Araeen, Charlotte Moth and Derek Jarman. "Peter loves to tell stories. He is a confluence of the oral traditions of both his parents, and of high and low art…as well as a great deal of humour and playfulness, camaraderie and spirit, sometimes mixed with a touch of whimsy." Tacita Dean, artist Please join us for our Season Celebration in the Peter Scott Gallery on 5 November at 5.30pm.
