Late Night Art and Shopping

10 Dec 2025 5-8pm

Nottingham Contemporary
Nottingham NG1 2GB

Overview

Amid the hustle and bustle of the festive season we are delighted to keep our doors open late, until 8pm on Wed 10 & 17 Dec (find out more about the 17 Dec here), offering evening entry to our exhibitions and sophisticated shopping for gift buyers in search of something unique and different.

Come browse our shop, with its acclaimed range of ceramics, glassware, jewellery, homewares, toys and books, and discover all sorts of exciting things by designers, makers and publishers from across the UK. It's the perfect place to pick up a gift, with every penny supporting our exhibitions and education programmes.

Or, take time out from the retail rat race to explore our exhibitions in the evening - a rare opportunity!

We are currently showcasing two powerful exhibitions: Feels Strangely Good, Ya? – the first international institutional solo exhibition of the late Balinese artist I Gusti Ayu Kadek Murniasih “Murni” – and Prisoners of Love: Until the Sun of Freedom, a major new commission by the Palestinian artist duo Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahme. You can pre-book entry to our exhibitions here.

And don't forget to grab a drink and relax to Live Christmas Jazz at Blend Contemporary, our stylish café, who will be serving festive spiced refreshments as well as their usual range of hot and cold beverages.

Give What You Can
