Feel the Flow –Lisa Timmerman
We are delighted to welcome Lisa Timmerman, who returns, after 10 years, to 78 Derngate to display her evocative work in our newly refurbished galleries for her 5th solo exhibition: ‘Flow’.
For Lisa, the journey to this exhibition began in Burma Myanmar in 2016 and flowed through to a quote by Kabul Gibron: ‘Beauty is not in the face, beauty is a light in the heart.’ Since 2019 she has been working with oil, cold wax and other painting techniques, experimenting with ways to give the viewer their own lift and ‘light in the heart’ moment.
Enjoy the moving tranquillity of these paintings and reflect on the thoughts behind them at Lisa Timmermanâ€™s exhibition entitled â€œFlowâ€�. It runs from Wednesday April 3rd to June 29th in our Barwell Room and Mezzanine Galleries, open 10 am â€“ 4.30 pm (closed Mondays). Free entry to exhibitions, all work for sale. Why not take the perfect opportunity and combine a visit to the exhibition together with a trip round the adjacent Charles Rennie Mackintosh House (for which there is an entry fee) gardens, restaurant and shop.

Vivienne Westwood was seen as the Grand Dame of fashion design for over 50 years. Her work with partner Malcolm McLaren defined the look of punk in the 1970s and subsequent fashion collections shaped the fashion world of the late twentieth century. This exhibition showcases a small part of an extensive personal collection that features her iconic shoes and outfits from her career defining collections such as Seditionairies, favoured by the Sex Pistols and Pirate. The Vivienne Westwood brand was not involved in the curation or organisation of this exhibition.

“Don’t you worry. I’ll always love you. Love doesn’t run out. It’s not like the gas meter. I’ll find extra love.”
Brighton, 2008: Damian Barr celebrates getting a deal to write a memoir about his chaotic childhood in 1980s Lanarkshire. But as soon as he opens the door to his troubled past, everybody comes rushing through, including his younger self and the woman who forever changes his family, community and country: Maggie Thatcher.
Soon, revisiting his past turns into reliving it – the fear and the joy. From the furnaces of the Ravenscraig Steelworks to the sanctuary of Carfin Grotto, there’s trauma and triumph, coming of age and coming out. Can Damian survive his past again, find his voice and finally tell his story?
Past and present collide, endangering the future, in the world premiere stage adaptation of modern Scottish classic Maggie & Me (Sunday Times Memoir of the Year).
Damian Barr, James Ley and director Suba Das team up for this bold new production, with an incredible ensemble cast led by Gary Lamont (Boiling Point, Outlander). Join us on an explosive quest that tells the story of a particular place and time through Damian’s childhood. Before you can move forwards, you have to go back…

CHURCH OPEN DAYS - MAY - SEPTEMBER
2024-06-08 14:00 - 16:00 | Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Sheep Street, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 2LY
Our Medieval Round Church has been welcoming visitors since 1100 AD and in 2024 she is set to fling open her doors again.
On Saturday afternoons from 2pm-4pm from May to September, visitors can learn all about this fascinating church and the historic treasures she contains.
If only these walls could talk, I wonder what they would say? For the moment we will let our historians do the talking.
The Holy Sepulchre is the oldest building in Northampton, surviving the great fire, one of only four medieval round churches in the U.K., and has the longest aisle in Northampton.
Historic battles have taken place here, famous people have been married here and royalty has visited.
The stained glass is beautiful, the Soldier’s Chapel delightful and the stories even more intriguing.
Join our volunteers and historians every Saturday from May to September to find out more.
Â
DATES:
Every Saturday from May 4th until 7th September. 2pm-4pm.
Â
WHERE:
Holy Sepulchre Church Hall, Church Lane, Northampton NN1 3NL.
