We want you to put your art right onto a gallery wall

Make Your Mark is a giant communal artwork made from tape, created by the people of Gloucester, together. We’re taking a break from hanging a traditional exhibition to bring you the chance to help us create something bold, creative, and collaborative.

In our Exhibition Gallery you’ll find two distinct spaces to explore: a darker area, where your glowing tape will create striking, luminous designs; and a bigger lighter space ready to be filled with coloured masking tape, where vibrant layers will build up over time.

Whether you want to make your own mark or simply enjoy what others have created, this is an art space for everyone. Visit several times to see how the artwork grows and changes.

This project is about community, about coming together to create something meaningful. As Gloucester’s museum, we exist to tell the city’s stories, and this artwork will become part of that story.

Support Us
While Make Your Mark free to take part, we are reliant on donations. We look after over 750,000 objects of local, regional and national significance but caring for such a large number of fragile historic items is hugely expensive, and the restrictive nature of our building means that we are only able to display 1% of our collection. Every gift helps us preserve an object, improve parts of our building and move us towards a Museum for Gloucester where our story is preserved and displayed in a way the city can be truly proud of.
