What can you expect from Play the Museum?

MA Dance | MA Fine Art |
Bath Spa University postgraduate students respond to the collection, the space and the history of the Holburne Museum in a playful collaboration, combining artwork, music and dance.
The building will be reanimated with contemporary artwork and site-specific performance that takes as its starting point the possibilities and limitations of translation from one form to another: space – sound – movement – object.
Short performances will be happening in different places throughout the evening and audience members can come and go as they please. Please pick up a programme on arrival.
BA Design |
Students from Bath Spa University’s BA Design course have created bespoke souvenirs, responding to The Holburne’s historic collection and building. An opportunity to purchase unique pieces made by the next generation of makers and designers.
