tells the story of the period of some 50 years, spanning the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when this small fishing village was one of the most important centres for artistic activity in the country. The exhibition includes 28 works from the North Tyneside Council Art Collection, by major North East artists such as Robert Jobling, John Falconar Slater, WH Charlton, Bernard Benedict Hemy and George Horton. Many of these pictures have been shown in public only rarely, if at all, during the last 25 years. Eight paintings from the Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums collections are also part of the exhibition. Segedunum is only a few minutes’ walk from Wallsend Metro station, and there is on-site car parking. More information at www.twmuseums.org.uk/segedunum.
