On the eve of Valentine’s Day, join us for pop-up serenades, anti-love songs in the Artbar, our summer scribbles workshop, an artist talk with Tim Silver, and a special performance by Katie Noonan. Plus, Instagram your Love Bytes on the evening for your chance to win a lovers’ retreat.
Artbar is still celebrating Summer in Soho with champagne and oysters for the final weeks of Francis Bacon: five decades and we’re sharing the love with two-for-one tickets for entry into the exhibition – available from 5pm only at the Gallery’s ticketing desk.
