31 May The most imaginative way to spend £15 this Summer
Until 30th June, Art Fund, the national charity for art, is offering the chance to try a National Art Pass for just £15 for three months – an incredible opportunity to explore and discover cultural destinations.
With a National Art Pass you’ll receive free entry at over 250 places and 50% off major exhibitions plus special offers at museum shops and cafes. It’s the perfect way to set yourself on a journey of inspiration and discovery. Each National Art Pass purchased enables Art Fund to help museums share great art and culture with everyone.
This Summer, visit Ai Weiwei: Making Sense at the Design Museum. This major exhibition, developed in collaboration with Ai Weiwei himself, is the first to present his work as a commentary on design and what it reveals about our changing values.
The show mixes recent works with commissioned pieces, inviting you into a meditation on value and humanity, art and activism. Or why not explore The Rossettis at Tate Britain. This exhibition follows the romance and radicalism of the Rossetti generation, through and beyond the Pre-Raphaelite years. With a trial National Art Pass, you will gain 50% off the ticket price to both these landmark exhibitions.
If you’re a fashionista, you will love Beyond the Little Black Dress at the National Museum, Scotland, a chance to discover the cultural significance of the little black dress and the radical power of the colour black. Or take a visit to The Fashion and Textile Museum and enter in to the world of Andy Warhol: The Textiles, where you can see patterns made for Glamour magazine, colourful prints and explore how textiles influenced his later creations. 50% off the ticket price for both exhibitions.
There’s even more to discover with the National Art Pass including free entry to Eltham Palace where you can explore 19 acres of award-winning gardens and delve inside the striking art deco mansion. Or why not visit the Tenby Museum and Art Gallery, an eclectic museum which celebrates the local history and creativity, situated in the gorgeous Welsh harbour town. Finally, you can take a trip to The Inniskillings Museum for three hundred years of history brought to life through unique military artefacts. Free entry to all of these wonderful cultural places with a National Art Pass.
