London Gallery Visit

Sat, Jul 4, 10:00 AM
From London Photography & Art Tours - Walks, Workshops & Weekends

For our first meetup, we'll be visiting 2 world famous galleries in London - The National Gallery and The National Portrait Gallery, an opportunity to see some incredible art with a friendly and creative group. Perhaps you've never been and always wanted to visit, maybe you're looking for inspiration for your own work, or perhaps you would like to meet some similar minded creative people - whatever your reason, it would be great to welcome you along. You can expect to see famous works by Monet, Van Gogh, Turner, Da Vinci, Constable, Rembrandt and many many more. Our visit only includes public viewing galleries and not private showings (these require additional tickets and maybe something I look at planning in the future). Our day will be split into two sections, in the morning we'll spend some time at The National Gallery and after lunch (at a nearby pub - The Garrick Arms) will visit the National Portrait Gallery. Our day is expected to end at around 4pm. While we'll meet up as a group and have some lunch together, once inside the galleries, you'll be free to wander and explore as you wish (you can of course stick with me but that's entirely up to you!). Meet up times & locations will be provided throughout the day for moving between our gallery locations. We'll meet outside the National Gallery entrance (Sainsbury Wing) just before 11am.
