SUMMARY:Take a Closer Look: Howard Hodgkin
DESCRIPTION:Join a Curator from The Amelia for a short guided tour of the current temporary exhibition Howard Hodgkin: In a Public Garden. Whether you already know the works of Howard Hodgkin\, or are curious to learn more\, join us to take a closer look. \nThis autumn\, The Amelia Scott presents Howard Hodgkin: In a Public Garden\, a critically acclaimed exhibition bringing together more than 30 prints spanning five decades of the artist’s career\, from 1966 to 2016. \nOriginally developed by Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery\, this landmark exhibition showcases the work of Howard Hodgkin\, whose vivid use of colour\, expressive brushwork and deeply personal approach to abstraction made him one of Britain’s most distinctive post-war artists. \nFeaturing bold\, gestural compositions that explore memory\, emotion and place\, the exhibition immerses visitors in Hodgkin’s unique visual world. The selected prints reveal the important role printmaking played throughout his practice and demonstrate his extraordinary ability to transform fleeting experiences into powerful images. \nHoward Hodgkin: In a Public Garden\, a Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Touring Exhibition.  \nImage credit: Howard Hodgkin\, Palm and Window 1990-1991 (detail) – © 2026 The Estate of Howard Hodgkin.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Sarah Raven and Adam Nicolson
DESCRIPTION:Join Sarah Raven and Adam Nicolson for a rare evening together\, sharing the inside story of two remarkable gardens – Sissinghurst Castle and Perch Hill – and the family\, ideas and history that connect them. \nAdam grew up at Sissinghurst with his grandparents\, Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicolson.
