THE BARRY ROOMS, THE NATIONAL GALLEY, LONDON
This year, on 22nd May, the Hermitage Foundation UK’s Gala Banquet will be held at the National Gallery; which follows the tradition of holding our Galas in the most beautiful historical venues in London – the Raphael Gallery of the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Enlightenment Gallery at the British Museum, Kensington Palace and Spencer House. The evening will begin with a Champagne reception followed by Dinner in the Barry Rooms
With Prof. Mikhail Piotrovsky, Director of the State Hermitage Museum, James Dawnay, Chairman of The Hermitage Foundation and Dr Gabriele Finaldi, Director of the National Gallery, this year’s Gala will concentrate on the contemporary. The evening will include an auction of donated works of art which in the past has enabled us to support exhibitions at The Hermitage Museum, including Anselm Kiefer, Zaha Hadid, Tony Cragg, The Chapman Brothers and Sir Antony Gormley.
You are invited to take part in this great evening celebration. Tables for ten cost £10,000 or individual tickets can be purchased at £1,000 per head. Two exclusive Platinum Tables at £20,000 will also be available.
