We visited Kirkby Gallery to see our good friend and former exhibitor Jeff Young's new exhibition, ‘Sacred Memory Bank’, created in collaboration with Mike Badger.

As Kathryn Wainwright from Art In Liverpool beautifully puts it, “the assemblages are... a form of physical poetry, a love letter to a moment in time.” The exhibition brings life into everyday objects, carefully pieced together to tell unique stories.

‘Sacred Memory Bank’ is up until the 27th March

‘Excess Baggage’ 💥 We are incredibly excited to be hosting a new show in our studio this March.

‘Excess Baggage’ is the debut exhibition from the vaults of the Paper Bag Archive which boasts the world’s largest collection of paper bags, and is a nostalgic trip down the British high street of the last 100 years.

The show provides a fascinating slice of social history and is a must for everyone who fondly remembers spending their pocket money in a physical store.

The show continues Dorothy's commitment to hosting exhibition ‘FIRSTS’, supporting debut shows by designers, artists, writers and collectors.

Show runs 5th March - 27th March
Private View Thursday 5th March 2026, 5 - 7pm - All welcome
