Arthur Berry On The Streets
Pop-up, open-air exhibition celebrating the life and work of Stoke cultural icon Arthur Berry in his centenary year.
Appetite is joining the celebrations for 100 years of Arthur Berry: playwright, poet, painter, cultural icon. 2025 would have been his centenary year, and it’s a time when we look forward to honouring his extraordinary life and contribution to art, literature and culture with a series of events. There will be exhibitions, performances, discussions and unprecedented public access to his archive.
As part of this, Appetite are presenting a pop-up, open-air exhibition exploring Arthur’s life and work. The exhibition ‘cubes’ will also feature some of the Three Counties Open Art Exhibition Arthur Berry Prize-winners, shining a light on his lasting legacy.
The exhibition will run from August to October, beginning in Stoke-on-Trent City Centre (Hanley, 4 August – 14 September) before moving to Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre (20 September – 1 October).
Check out all of the events in the #ArthurBerry100 series – including a staging of Whatever Happened to Phoebe Salt? at New Vic Theatre – at arthurberry100.co.uk
This event also forms part of the celebrations for Stoke-on-Trent’s 100th anniversary year.
