Susie MacMurray dresses the splendid Assembly Room with a specially commissioned sculptural installation. Taking inspiration from the room’s former function, Susie uses a combination of silk velvet and raw wire to comment on the public and private roles of women who may have graced the dance floor, perhaps in the inaugural ball of 1831?
St Albans Museum + Gallery
The new St Albans Museum + Gallery opens this spring following the transformation of St Albans’ Town Hall. UH Arts is delighted to be a partner in this pioneering project, contributing a range of exhibitions and events.
We launch the new venue on the 8 June 2018. The doors open to the museum collection displays and temporary exhibitions, including a surprising intervention through the building by artist Lyndall Phelps, a dramatic new installation by Susie MacMurray and a showcase of work by the three artists-in-residence.
Opening Times
Monday – Saturday 10:00 – 17:00
Sunday 12:00 – 17:00
