The Peter Scott Gallery's current exhibition, Environment 2.0, an exploration of art and sustainability commissioned by the Nuffield Theatre and Manchester's Futuresonic Festival has successfully launched and is already attracting positive reviews:

The Peter Scott Gallery is delighted to be welcoming two of the international artists whose work features in the show: Heather Ackroyd of duo Ackroyd and Harvey and Helen Evans of Paris-based HeHe. As part of their visit the artist's will be taking part in a FREE artists talk event, 2.30pm-5pm Wednesday 21st October.
