The theatre, located in the New Adelphi Building on our Peel Park campus, has an exciting events calendar with live music, art, comedy and performance events. With work on show from established, international touring companies to emerging artists and our own students, we are proud to host a diverse programme with something for everyone. At its heart, our vision is committed to nurturing the emerging talents of our graduates, supporting the work of our postgraduates and fostering partnerships with regional, national and international artists.
HIDDEN GEMS ON CAMPUS
Salford Museum and Art Gallery was the UK’s ‘first free public library’, which opened in January 1850. The building was a mansion house known as Lark Hill, which had been built in the 1790s and has given its name to the museum’s famous Lark Hill Place; a Victorian street within the museum. Today, Salford Museum and Art Gallery presents an exciting programme of permanent displays and changing contemporary exhibitions from its home adjacent to our Peel Building on Peel Park campus. We’d also recommend a visit to the gift shop, which showcases work from local artists and designers, and don’t forget to try one of the café’s homemade cakes!
