An emotional day celebrating the last day of the #stillparents exhibition at the Whitworth. Huge thanks to Lucy Turner for making it all happen. Graham Bates
This was such a beautiful & moving exhibition. The sensitivity and care that you and your team put into it Lucy Turner was wonderful. A very much deserved Museums Association 'Museums Change Lives' award. Was delighted to catch it the Whitworth on its last day #StillParents
Last week, as part of #babyloss awarenessweek i spoke to Hits Radio about the #StillParents project & the importance of talking openly about #babyloss . The #StillParents exhibition has provided a platform to break the silence surrounding baby loss.
On display until 4 Dec 22.
I did it. I’ve been determined to visit for months and finally I’ve been. Will be telling Twins Trust Bereavement Support Group how it went.🦋💙 #babyloss #stillparents the Whitworth Sands - baby loss charity 💙🧡

. Ten years ago no major art gallery/museum would think of exhibiting work on the theme of #babyloss or #stillbirth , so glad the taboo is slowly breaking down. Slowly yes, but still

Talking about baby loss can be incredibly difficult. Kym Marsh, who lost her son Archie in 2009, went to meet a group in Manchester using art to help bereaved parents explore their feelings and share their experiences.

Thanks to A. van 't Klooster for running a special #stillparents workshop last night. I was blown away by the work created & once again reminded of the #powerofart . Drawing our babies from photos & scans we spent time studying every inch of them & losing ourselves in the act of drawing.
Trigger warning ⚠️⛔️ upsetting theme #babyloss #stillborn #stillbirth #miscarriage #stillparents #pcos
A beautiful exhibition 💕👇🏻💔
Our #StillParents #whitworthvolunteers were an integral heart of this exhibition - the Whitworth Lucy Turner and MCR Charity Sands have helped to support them as they supported visitors and each other ❤️ a truly special team 🌟
