Description
Our new intimate exhibition, Divine and Mythical Creatures from the RSN Collection & Archive, illustrates a fascinating array of pieces from Royal School of Needlework’s Collection & Archive with a focus on imaginary earthly and celestial beings, both human and animal. Objects on display span multiple centuries and continents, illustrating everything from dragons to heraldic beasts and ancient gods and goddesses.
The Curator Talk & Private View begins with an illustrated lecture by one of our curators who will reveal in-depth information about the RSN Collection and why they chose the objects on display as well as relaying some of the fascinating stories and facts about them.
She will also provide historical context and background about the Royal School of Needlework. After this you will have the opportunity to examine exhibits in close detail with the curator and your tour guide.
The Curator Talk & Private View events cost £35 per person and last for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Please note that backless, folded chairs are available for seating
Please note that these events do not include entrance to tour Hampton Court Palace and we will collect guests at HCP Security. Bookings are non-refundable and non-transferrable.
