Founded in 1899, the Whitworth Art Gallery, which has been a part of the University of Manchester since 1958, takes its name form a Stockport engineer, Sir Joseph Whitworth. It houses a large collection of paintings, drawings, modern art, sculpture and watercolours. It is also home to the largest collection of wallpapers and textiles outside of London. The Whitworth draws on this vast resource to offer constantly changing exhibitions as well as hosting touring exhibitions, and providing practical workshops and talks.
