Museums At Night This Weekend

Over the coming weekend several museums in London and elsewhere will be opening their doors for special evening events as part of ‘Museums at Night‘.

A 1940s-themed evening at the Churchill War Rooms will be taking place on Friday 13th, while over in suburban Ilford, Valentines Mansion will be opening their doors for a Future Shorts film night. Elsewhere the London Canal Museum in Kings Cross will be having a candle-lit evening on Saturday with art and film exhibits and the Government Art Collection will have one of its very, very rare public openings for a guided tour which will include the workshops and archives, which they’ve imaginatively called ‘Bedtime Stories‘.

You can find a helpful listing by theme on the Culture 24 website here, as well as a google map showing the participating museums. I hope you manage to get along to something.
