About

Whose portrait will be in your gallery of the future? Could it be you? Join us at the Portrait Gallery every afternoon this February half-term for hands-on art making and play with our friendly Artist Team. We’ll be taking inspiration from The Modern Portrait exploring the past and present to create portraits fit for the future!
