We stay open until 8.30pm once a month, inviting you to explore the collection and exhibitions after hours. Pallant Café will be open throughout the evening serving food and drinks, and the Pallant House Gallery Bookshop is stocked with art books, prints and gifts.
In September we’ll be joined by artist Tom Hammick and writer Adam Nicolson to explore the story behind their artistic collaboration seen on display in the Print Room (talk is a separately ticketed event – book here).
There will also be a drop-in behind-the-scenes Library session, a curator’s tour of our Haroun Hayward: Path through Trees exhibition, drop-in life drawing with Wendy Barratt and a Studio drink and draw workshop (sold separately).
