Van Gogh and Britain

Please arrive at Tate Britain via the Clore Entrance at the side of the building on Millbank. When standing with your back to the river the Clore entrance is located the right of the main entrance through the green doors.

Please meet in the Clore Foyer where refreshments will be served from 10.30-11.00. Our private lecture will then take place in the adjacent Clore Auditorium and finish just after 12.00. We are delighted that Janeen Haythornthwaite has agreed to be our guest speaker. Janeen is a Tate lecturer and freelance art historian - some of you will have met her in 2014 when she gave us a wonderful lecture in conjunction with Late Turner: Painting Set Free and again in 2018  when she gave us a private talk in conjunction with the Picasso exhibition at Tate Modern.

A private buffet lunch (included) will then be served in the Clore Foyer followed by timed entry tickets to see the exhibition. Audioguide hire is not included but these can be hired for a small fee at the exhibition entrance if required.

Please do let us know on the booking form if you have any food intolerances, allergies or dietary requirements as we need to inform the catering department of these in advance. Thank you

Lunch is included - please see above.

We are sorry that alcoholic drinks will not be available during lunch as they are not permitted in the public spaces of the gallery.
