Temple Newsam is proud to unveil two new commissions of contemporary silver by leading silversmiths Miriam Hanid and Yusuke Yamamoto.
Drawing inspiration from Temple Newsam’s exceptional silver holding, their new works echo the craftsmanship and artistry of the past while bringing a striking contemporary voice into the collection.
This new community-led exhibition explores the path of trade unions and worker's rights from 1812 to AI.
Centred on the story of Luddites, as well as workers rights during the 1970s and 1980s, it explores the ongoing tension of man vs machine, contextualising our current striking practices regarding AI and the modern job market.

With thanks to Hannah at Get Lost Yorkshire:
HeyI don’t know about you, but this part of August always feels a little strange. Summer isn’t quite over, but September is starting to creep into the edges. Diaries are filling back up, routines are returning, and there’s that familiar feeling of wanting to squeeze in one or two more adventures before the season slips away. So this week, I thought I’d share something simple and useful: nine circular walks in West Yorkshire. I love a circular walk because there’s something very satisfying about ending up back where you started without having to retrace your steps. Especially if there’s a café, pub, picnic spot or ice cream waiting nearby! This guide includes a mix of routes, from peaceful woodland wanders and lakeside strolls to bigger moorland walks with proper views. You’ll find ideas around Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Marsden, Bingley and Haworth, including places like Judy Woods, Newmillerdam, Castle Hill, Five Rise Locks and Top Withens. Some are gentle. Some will definitely make your legs work a bit harder. But they all offer a lovely excuse to get outside and make the most of these final summer days. 👉 Read the full guide to 9 circular walks in West Yorkshire here Whether you’re planning one last summer holiday walk, a weekend reset, or just looking for somewhere new close to home, I hope there’s a route in there that gives you a little inspiration. Until our next adventure, Yorkshire Events What's on in Yorkshire this weekend?Here's a glimpse of what's on in Yorkshire this weekend 👀 West Yorkshire: Adventure Cinema at Harewood House returns this weekend with open-air screenings including Dirty Dancing, Encanto and Mamma Mia!
