Summer Exhibition 2016
Enjoy exclusive access to a Friends Lounge during Summer Saturdays, our late opening of the Summer Exhibition 2016. Hear from DJs while you indulge in fresh, summer aperitivo and cocktails.
The Summer Exhibition is the world’s largest open submission show: a panorama of art in all mediums, a remarkable mixture of emerging artists and household names, with more to see and explore than any other exhibition you’re likely to visit this year.
There will be an exclusive Friends Lounge in the Sir Hugh Casson Room, with international DJ Liam Lowe mixing sets inspired by disco, funk, house and classic '80s hits. A special aperitivo menu will be on offer, including the classic summer cocktail Aperol Spritz.
Aperitivo menu, including:
• Aperol Spritz, cheese straws, nuts and olives - £10
• Cheese and prosciutto platter - £7
• Glass of prosecco - £6
The Summer Exhibition will be open until 10pm. Last entrance is at 9.30pm.
