Where There's A Will, There's A Way - The Beginnings Of The Shipley Art Gallery
A talk for Local History Month, by Anthea Lang.
When Joseph Shipley died in 1909, his will laid the foundations for a dilemma that would take years to resolve. By the end of it, Gateshead had its first public art gallery.
Discover the fascinating story behind the foundation of the gallery and the man whose massive picture collection was at the heart of the dilemma.
