The gallery plays an important role in the cultural life of both campus and Colchester, drawing a wide local, national, and international audience to its programme of exhibitions and events.

  Lichfield Street, Wolverhampton, WV1 1DU
  

  Wolverhampton Art Gallery has an impressive collection of modern and contemporary art which deals with the theme of war and conflict and its effects on society.
