Private View - Our Inner Worlds: Expressions of Our Lived Experiences

Private View - Our Inner Worlds: Expressions of Our Lived Experiences takes place on 24 November 2026. Venue: The Holden Gallery, Manchester.

As part of Disability History Month, the Disabled Staff Network presents Our Inner Worlds - a special exhibition bringing together creative expressions of lived experience from Disabled staff and students across Manchester Met. The exhibition explores the many different perspectives, emotions, experiences and stories that shape our inner worlds. Through artwork, photography, crafts, poetry, writing and other forms of creative expression, the exhibition offers an opportunity to see disability through a range of personal perspectives - from everyday experiences and challenges to identity, pride, community, belonging and celebration. Our Inner Worlds is a celebration of creativity and lived experience, and an invitation to pause, look closer and consider the different experiences that exist within our community. All staff are welcome to visit the exhibition at The Holden Gallery from 24-27 November. You are invited to join us for the private view, from 3pm - 7pm on Tuesday 25th November. Please book your place here to attend the private view. If you are bringing guests along, please book a ticket per person.
