• Friends of the RA get free access to all our exhibitions. You can join in person and benefit on the day – visit the Friends desk or speak to one of our ‘Become a Friend’ representatives or call 020 7300 5664.

• Advance tickets are also available by telephone but lines are very busy, especially around lunch times.
