Gated Canyons Late
Join us for a vibrant Summer Late like no other, celebrating the bold, immersive world of Rachel Jones: Gated Canyons — an exhibition that dives deep into how colour, shape and form stir the senses.
Expect a night packed with energy:
anaiis performance in the Chapel
Musician and artist anaiis will perform an acoustic rendition of her album anaiis & Grupo Cosmo - 2024 accompanied by a string quartet in the Chapel.
This seven-track record intricately weaves together diverse cultural and musical influences, exploring profound themes such as Black identity, motherhood, birth, and the natural world.
anaiis in conversation with Rachel Jones
Before the performance, anaiis will be in conversation with her friend and collaborator Rachel Jones. Don't miss this rare opportunity to see these artists discuss their distinctive approaches to creating.
