To end 2025 and welcome the year ahead, ZIMMERMAN’s summer exhibition celebrates "all things small and wonderful" - art works small enough for you to tuck in a tote and take home immediately.

As works leave the exhibition, new works will arrive to take their place - so this evolving exhibition will showcase a variety of works in the weeks ahead.

Come take a look this summer - the gallery is open every day until Christmas, then re-opening on Thursday 8 January 2026.
