ONE WEEK TO GO!

With last night’s launch for Simon Roberts’ Let This Be A Sign kicking off this year’s London Festival of Photography, the anticipation is mounting for 1 June when the majority of our major exhibitions will be open to the public for the first time!

Let This Be a Sign is open from today until 1 July at the Swiss Cottage Gallery (see website for specific opening hours). Visitors and remote individuals alike are encouraged to participate in the exhibition by Tweeting about the ways in which they have been personally impacted by the recession using the hashtag #letthisbeasign. Tweets will be displayed on a screen at the gallery as part of the show.

Most of our exhibitions are within two minutes’ walk of one another, so you should be able to visit several in any one trip!
