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: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:Jim Davidson – Last Man Standing… Just!
DESCRIPTION:Jim Davidson Last Man Standing…Just! \nIn the ever-evolving book of British comedy\, Jim Davidson OBE remains a best-seller\, an unapologetic voice still standing tall while others bow to the tide. \nThrough decades of laughter\, controversy\, and cultural change\, he’s held the line. And now\, in 2025\, he’s back with a brand-new tour ‘Last Man Standing…Just!’ and firing on all cylinders and refusing to be silenced. \nDespite the relentless efforts of a vocal woke minority to pen his final chapter\, Jim’s story is far from over. Shadow-banned\, de-platformed\, and ‘cancelled’ more times than he can count\, Davidson has turned adversity into ammunition\, his live shows becoming safe havens for those who still believe in common sense\, satire\, and the best of British comedy. \nJim’s 2025 UK tour\, ‘The Next Chapter\,’ proved that the appetite for unfiltered\, grown-up laughter is alive and well\, with the General receiving standing ovations from Glasgow to Southend from loyal and new fans alike\, many who feel silenced themselves. Jim’s audience loyal packed venues across the UK\, cheering not just the punchlines but the principles behind them now\, as Britain stands at a cultural crossroads. Davidson returns to do what he does best: say what others are thinking\, with razor-sharp wit and bulletproof timing. \nIt’s time to reset. To push back. To laugh again without fear. Jim invites you to join him once again for a riotous evening where freedom of speech takes centre stage\, comedy bites back\, and the battle for Britain’s comedic soul rages on. He’s survived the storms\, stood firm in the face of censorship\, and he’s still here! Oh\, and yes—he’s got another wedding to pay for. \n  \n** This show is strictly for 18years +**
