PROCESS ROOM
 The Process Room is located in the gallery space on the first floor. The purpose of the Process Room is to reveal processes in the creation, exhibition and consideration of contemporary art, which are often hidden from the general public. Examples of work-in-progress from programmes, such as the Artists’ Residency Programme, and aspects of the Education and Community Programme, can be seen in the Process Room.
For further information on the Artists’ Residency Programme in the Process Room please follow the link to  ARP: Public Access
