From 29 June to 2 September 2026 the University of Huddersfield at their Bath House Gallery will host a Post Office Cultures Exhibition. The internation exhibition will focus on the histories of post offices in both the UK and India.
The exhibition is part of the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) project which forms part of a partnership between the University of Huddersfield and World University of Design located in India. The partnership hopes to share the work from the locations in which the universities are located in and by researchers from Dewsbury, Huddersfield, Simla, Delhi.
