Events
Our events programme provides a wealth of cultural experience and entertainment.
We run a wide range of events all year round, including art shows, plays, music performances, book launches, creative writing events, festivals, talks and lectures. Some events take place online, some happen at our Covent Garden site, and others are held at different venues across London. Thanks to our partnerships with well-known organisations like The National Gallery and The British Museum, we’re able to explore exciting new spaces and connect with art and culture across the city.
