Immerse yourself in Baroque France at the little known museum of Wallace Collection, set in beautiful Hertford House in Marylebone. It has enough Old Masters to fill several blockbuster exhibitions - no timed ticket (in fact no ticket at all as it's free), no red rope, no crowds and take as many photos as you like.

11.00 to 16.00: Card games (landing), commedia dell'arte, treasure hunt.

11.30 to 14.30: Pop-up fashion and photography (meeting room).
