SUMMARY:From the Collection: Women Artists
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of artworks from NMAG’s collection celebrates the variety of genres\, methods and media used by women artists\, from the eighteenth to the twenty-first century. Northampton Museum & Art Gallery Saturday 11 November – Sunday 12 April 2026 Throughout history\, both men and women have created art\, yet only a select few have been remembered within Western art history. Art by men was historically valued more highly than art by women\, reflecting broader beliefs that only men could possess artistic or creative genius. Certain genres and mediums were also considered more prestigious\, while work made in the domestic sphere was dismissed as craft or decoration rather than recognised as fine art. Women were barred from studying nude figures a crucial part of classical art training until the late 1800s. Second-wave feminism in the twentieth century\, and wider social changes in the twenty-first\, have challenged these hierarchies. Today\, women are at the forefront of artistic production\, with artists such as Tracey Emin\, Maggi Hambling\, Rachel Whiteread and Jasleen Kaur recognised as leading voices in contemporary art.

SUMMARY:Miracle On 34th Street

SUMMARY:Miracle On 34th Street
DESCRIPTION:A true Christmas classic comes alive this holiday season with White Cobra‘s staged radio performance of Miracle On 34th Street.  The story is based on the famous 1947 film\, which was first presented as a radio play at the Lux Radio Theatre. \nA formidable Macy’s store executive\, Doris Walker is desperately searching for a new store Santa Claus.  She hires ‘Kris Kringle’ who insists that he is the real Santa Claus and proves immensely popular.  However\, when a conflict with the store’s incompetent psychologist erupts\, Kris finds himself at Bellevue where\, in despair\, he deliberately fails a psychological test.  All seems lost until Doris’ friend\, Fred Gailey\, reassures Kris of his worth and agrees to represent him in the fight to secure his release.  Fred arranges a hearing in which he argues that Kris is sane because he is in fact the real Santa Claus! \nThe White Cobra cast bring alive a lively crew of characters\, with radio jingles and sound effects that will delight audiences\, young and old.

SUMMARY:From the Collection: Women Artists
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of artworks from NMAG’s collection celebrates the variety of genres\, methods and media used by women artists\, from the eighteenth to the twenty-first century. Northampton Museum & Art Gallery Saturday 11 November – Sunday 12 April 2026 Throughout history\, both men and women have created art\, yet only a select few have been remembered within Western art history. Art by men was historically valued more highly than art by women\, reflecting broader beliefs that only men could possess artistic or creative genius. Certain genres and mediums were also considered more prestigious\, while work made in the domestic sphere was dismissed as craft or decoration rather than recognised as fine art. Women were barred from studying nude figures a crucial part of classical art training until the late 1800s. Second-wave feminism in the twentieth century\, and wider social changes in the twenty-first\, have challenged these hierarchies. Today\, women are at the forefront of artistic production\, with artists such as Tracey Emin\, Maggi Hambling\, Rachel Whiteread and Jasleen Kaur recognised as leading voices in contemporary art.
