Opened in 2000, the New Art Gallery Walsall has become an important cultural venue for the region. Designed by Caruso St John Architects, the building is recognised for its distinctive design and as the home of the renowned Garman Ryan Collection.

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, the gallery is partnering with the Birmingham Architectural Association to host a special evening event. The program will include a guided architectural tour and a conversation with founding director Peter Jenkinson OBE and architect Peter St John. Together, they’ll reflect on the building’s vision, design, and lasting influence.
