Guildhall Hull

Hull City Guildhall - Gala Dinner

We are grateful to Hull City Council for allowing us to make use of this historic venue for our Gala Dinner.

The Guildhall houses a fascinating and high quality public collection that includes fine art, sculpture, furniture, the Civic Insignia and silver.

Through the years the collection has grown through Royal favour, civic commissions, donations and good fortune. It provides a fascinating insight into the local history of Kingston upon Hull and some of its leading personalities through the ages.

With acres of oak and walnut panelling and marble floors and staircases, the Guildhall is a prestigious historic building in its own right. The Guildhall, designed by the architect Sir Edwin Cooper, was completed in 1916.

The Lord Mayor will welcome us to Hull in the beautiful setting of Feren's Art Gallery, which serves as the perfect venue for ASiT's first Civic drinks reception on Friday 12 March. Located in the heart of Kingston-upon-Hull, directly opposite the City Hall, this famous gallery hosts the City's extensive art collection.

The gallery's first-class permanent collection of paintings and sculpture spans the medieval period to the present day. These include European Old Masters, particularly Dutch and Flemish, portraiture, marine paintings, modern and contemporary British art, including video.
