The Burrell Collection tells the story of human creativity spanning more than six millennia. It is a unique combination of museum collection and building, both of international significance, situated within a historic country park. This new book vividly captures the epic undertaking of creating, conserving, and refurbishing a major public art space.
This free and un-ticketed event is held in the Special Events and Exhibition Space at the Burrell Collection on 14th November at 3.30pm.
