America after the Fall: Painting in the 1930s
Please join us to celebrate 20 years since the founding of the RA Patrons scheme, at a drinks reception highlighting the history of the scheme and the Royal Academy of Arts.
In May 1997 the Exhibition Patrons Group was officially recognised. Many of the original individuals are still involved with the RA today. This May, we will celebrate the history of this incredibly important group of passionate supporters.
The evening will be an opportunity to view archival material from the last 20 years of exhibitions in the RA Library, and to celebrate the highlights of the Patrons scheme.
There will also be a last chance to privately view America After the Fall: Painting in the 1930s.
