Over £72,000 raised towards our ‘Open Doors’ launch fund! A fantastic star-studded evening of performance and live illustration helped us to raise over £72,000 towards opening our new gallery in King’s Cross next year. Joanna Lumley, Peter Capaldi, Simon Russell Beale and Celia Imrie joined Quentin Blake and a host of famous illustrators in a celebration of Lewis Carroll’s famous poem The Hunting of the Snark.
