During the exhibition, the museum will be the temporary home to 
stunning watercolours by Leeds artist John Atkinson Grimshaw, who painted beautiful images of his home city.

His work will be on loan from Leeds Art Gallery, ensuring the paintings remain accessible to the public while the gallery is closed for refurbishment.
