The exhibition helping one nail tech realise she was an artist all along

Hull-based nail tech Lucy Allman, who never considered herself an artist, was recruited by curator Lucy Brooke to participate in an art exhibition titled "Mother," organized by The Feminine Urge Collective. Allman created a series of unique nail art pieces using mixed media, including her children's hair and 3D clay, exploring themes of childhood, teenage years, and motherhood. The exhibition runs from 1-17 May 2026 at a pop-up space on Pier Street in Hull.

Art by adults with learning disabilities exhibited

Artwork created by adults with learning disabilities is now on display at Hull's Streetlife Museum in an exhibition titled 'Regeneration,' running until 5 July. The show is organized by CASE Training Services, a charity that helps people with disabilities gain new skills and engage in social activities. The exhibition features sculpture, video, photography, paintings, and portraits, along with interactive 'talking tiles' that visitors can press to learn more about the pieces. Creative arts teacher Pete Vernon and museum curator Frankie Hodson both emphasized the importance of giving these artists a public platform to share their work.
