Art in Yorkshire iPhone app - Supported by Tate

We recently contributed to the Art in Yorkshire iPhone app - Supported by Tate, and we're pleased to announce that it features in the iTunes app store as 'New and Noteworthy'. A well-deserved success!

The app is a guide and interpretive tool for exhibitions and events taking place in museums and galleries throughout Yorkshire.

You can browse exhibitions, artists, venues and themes, recommend with a like, share with your friends, and find the code at the venue to leave your appinion (love this!)

It is an absolute pleasure to use. But don't take my word for it - here are some of the reviews on iTunes:

"I used this at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park... Fantastic app, really well put together with loads of info. If you like art, you'll love this!"
This app is extremely well designed. Great for finding details and reviews of art exhibitions in Yorkshire. I would love for this platform to be expanded to cover the whole UK. Great work!"
"Great little app: easy to use, loads of info, and smashing design. Just a shame there aren't more Appinions about. Love to unlock more of that content!"

Congratulations to Axisweb who developed the app in collaboration with fuse8, and in partnership with Leeds Met Gallery & Studio Theatre.

Art in Yorkshire Supported by Tate is a year long celebration of the visual arts in 19 art galleries throughout Yorkshire.

Have you spotted us on television yet?

Summer is here, hoards of children will soon be let loose from the nation's classrooms, and we would love for you all to visit us and Discover the Full Story.

That's the name of our Summer campaign, and if you live in Manchester, the Humber, or Yorkshire in you may have already seen our brightly coloured posters featuring some of the classic characters from television, gaming and film, so look out for them.

We'll also be beaming into your living rooms with our new television advert.


It will air for the very first time today (between ITV News and Emmerdale), and run until mid-August on ITV Yorkshire during prime time.

You can also see us on the big screen, because selected Vue and Odeon cinemas across Yorkshire will be showing our advert throughout August.

Visit our website to Discover the Full Story and find out what's on at the Museum over the Summer Holidays - keep checking back because there's more to come.
