We continue our sell-out series of Art Distilled with culture journalist and broadcaster, Nancy Durrant.
Nancy invites curators into the spotlight for an intimate conversation about the artworks that have shaped their careers and lives. Each curator reveals three artworks that have special significance to them, alongside a cocktail of their choice that stirs up a personal anecdote.
Art Distilled is an engaging and intimate exploration of art, perfect for anyone with a curious mind, passion for the visual world and thirst for discovery.
Take the opportunity to get to know our curators in a different light and enjoy an expertly-crafted cocktail.
Doors open at 6pm.
