Culture Night returns to Belfast! Golden Thread Gallery will be opening its doors until late, so audiences can explore Radical Hope, our new exhibition developed in collaboration with Arsenal Gallery in Białystok, after dark.
Curated from Collection II, one of Poland’s most significant collections of contemporary art, the exhibition offers a timely reflection on uncertainty, resilience, and the transformative potential of art.
We’ll have guided tours of the exhibition, led by our exhibitions team, with special insight into the artwork and the unique international collaboration that made it possible.
Plus, we will have free art activities for all ages in our Hub space throughout the night! Create your own special Culture Night souvenir, inspired by hope and resilience.
We look forward to seeing you!
This exhibition is part of the UK/Poland Season 2025 organised by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute, British Council and Polish Cultural Institute in London, and supported by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, as well as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Poland.
