ABOUT:

Please get your free ticket here before they run out https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/

Join us for a Friday social at the National Gallery. With late opening times enjoy amazing exhibits. This is a social event so plenty of chances to meet new people.

Format of the event: You will have the opportunity to socialise and connect with people at the meeting point and then go off into the museum together to explore. We will then meet at the the original meeting point and head to Underbelly Boulevard bar in Soho. https://maps.app.goo.gl/zFZvaotVRMP5EhbB8

This is a free event. More information here:

Schedule Summary:
6:45pm: The meeting point is OUTSIDE the National Gallery exit (Portico Exit). By outside I mean when you look up you will see the sky (or clouds). This is because it's easier to talk in a group outside the museum. We will be here for 30mins

7:15pm: we will go inside the museum. We will explore rooms 32 Carraci, Caravaggio, Guercino), 34 (Reynolds Gainsborough, Turner, Constable) and 45 (Van Gough). So if you are lost, find members in these rooms.

8:15pm: Reconvene and meet back at the original meeting point
8:30pm: Make our way to Underbelly Boulevard bar. https://maps.app.goo.gl/zFZvaotVRMP5EhbB8

Detailed Summary
Ladies and Gents, I'm looking forward to our event at the National Gallery today!
Please get your free ticket here before they run out https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/. DON'T WORRY IF THEY HAVE RUN OUT, GET A TICKET FOR A DIFFERENT TIME SLOT OR USE OUR GROUP TICKET WHICH I WILL POST IN THE WHATSAPP GROUP AND THE PHOTOS SECTION OF THE MEETUP PAGE.

How will this event work?
We will meet at the meeting point at 6:45pm and wait for 30mins for people to turn up. The meeting point is OUTSIDE the National Gallery exit. This is because we want to make the most of the sun. During this time attendees must go around and introduce themselves to everyone in the group. There will be no stickers or identifiers handed out so you will need to remember who's who so you can find each other easily inside the museum. The icebreaker question of today is "WHAT KIND OF ARTWORK ARE YOU DRAWN TO?"

At 7:15pm we will go inside the museum. Make sure you have gained a free ticket from the official website https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/
Specifically, We will explore rooms 32 Carraci, Caravaggio, Guercino), 34 (Reynolds Gainsborough, Turner, Constable) and 45 (Van Gough). So if you are lost, find members in these rooms. We will NOT walk around as a big group as the museum doesn't like that so it's important to meet people at the meeting point.

Around 8:30pm start making our own way to Underbelly Boulevard.
