Here we go….John Singer Sargent at Tate Britain or Botanical Exhibitions at Kew Gardens. Entrance to the one you decide on is included: £22 Tate/ £22 Kew approximately, and it’s essential to prepay online in advance before the end of the month of March 2024.

Two fabulous venues and your choice of either one.

TATE BRITAIN: Fashion, identity, painting: explore the unique work of John Singer Sargent. Celebrated for his striking portrait paintings in oil, this exhibition sheds new light on his acclaimed works. It explores how he worked like a stylist to craft the image of the sitters he painted, whom he often had close relationships with. In addition the Tate Britain collection can be viewed for free. https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on

KEW: Marc Quinn: Light into Life will encompass sculptures and installations across the Gardens alongside a dedicated presentation of works from the 1990s until today in the Shirley Sherwood Gallery of Botanical Art. In addition the botanic galleries and gardens can be viewed on the day as time permits. https://www.kew.org/about-us/press-media/2024-whats-on
