Joy for Ever: How to use art to change the world and its price in the market responds to the 200th birthday of artist, art critic and social reformer John Ruskin with a joyful look at how to use art for social change. The Whitworth‘s gallery space will host making workshops, talks and performances to encourage new debate, thinking and action on how better to live together today.
