Dean Clough regularly devotes up to nine of its public spaces to a rolling programme of gallery exhibitions that typically reflect contemporary art practice in the North of England.
The Crossley Gallery is one of the largest contemporary arts spaces in Yorkshire. It provides a prime venue for group shows (for instance 'Jerusalem' in 2006, which included work by Gordon Cheung, David Hancock and Simon Woolham) and for artist who paint on a large scale (for instance Albert Irving in 1997), or who are candidates for major retrospectives (for instance Derek Hyatt in 2005). The gallery has also been used for textile exhibitions (The Quilters Guild in 1999) and display installations (notably, a retrospective of the Sheffield-born designer David Mellor in 1999).
Tom Palin The Upstairs and Mosaic Galleries are typically used to display recent contemporary work (for instance Tom Palin 2004 or John Ross 2005); and are sometimes combined to accommodate smaller retrospectives (for instance Burnley-born illustrator Paul Slater in 2007).
The Community and Education Gallery is available to local groups and projects with a community focus. Exhibitions can reflect arts initiatives such as school projects, or have only a minor involvement with the arts - such as an Age Concern show in 2
