~ Reading the Gallery ~

Join us for a workshop led by art historian, writer and curator Hector Campbell for a live crash course in how to digest and then write about an exhibition.

Bring your notebook and pens as Hector walks guests around the group exhibition, ‘Being Without Being is Blue’, Lorena Lohr’s solo exhibition, ‘Motel Nudes’, and Hanne Peeraer’s installation ‘Soft Reset’.

Whether you are a budding art writer or just want to know how to enjoy and better understand art exhibitions, come one come all!

Please note, as always the first twenty minutes will be an opportunity for guests to network and connect. Doors open at 6.30pm and the event will promptly start at 6.50pm.

Tickets are limited.
