About Art
About Art takes a different approach to displaying art in a gallery.
You'll still find wonderful paintings from Sheffield's collection here, but you'll also discover more about where artists find their inspiration, the materials they use, and how to read things like colour and symbolism when looking at art.
About Art is also the home of recent addition Selkie the Seal, carved from beautiful alabaster. Don't forget to create your own artwork and hang it in the gallery before you leave.
