Hello cinema lovers! 🎬 What if cinema could become an act of resistance? 🥁 Join us as we explore Zineb Sedira’s fascinating installation at Tate Britain, where film, politics and cultural history collide. Step into recreated spaces inspired by the revolutionary spirit of 1960s and 70s cinema, from Parisian cafés buzzing with ideas to mobile cinemas bringing stories to new audiences. More than a trip into the past, this exhibition invites us to question whose stories get told, how memories shape our world, and whether art can really make a difference. 🎟️ Admission is free and no booking required. We will meet outside the exhibition room. [More info about the exhibit here.](https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-britain/zineb-sedira) We will take about 1 hour to explore the exhibit then go for coffee somewhere nearby. Everyone welcome 🙂 Important to note: 1. We typically socialise at cafés after the exhibit, nice, independent ones, not chains and not at pubs. If the event is late on a Saturday we go to a nice bar/pub for drinks after. This meetup is inclusive and everyone is welcome to join. 1. If you get there before everyone and you’re not sure what to do or where we are, post a comment on here and I will let you know our whereabouts. 1. Once we go in we may separate, feel free to explore the exhibit by yourself, we don’t have to be together. Some people like chatting to others while exploring and other people prefer to be with their own thoughts. You are welcome to express yourself and do whatever feels comfortable. 1. If you are late or if you’ve booked for an earlier or later time don’t worry just go in and you’ll find us inside. Keep an eye on the comments as I’ll be posting updates.

Gallery & Sketching

Gallery & Sketching

Fri, Nov 6, 10:00 AM
From London Arts & Entertainment Meetup Group
4.7

Have you ever wanted to be that person who sketches in a gallery but you're too nervous to have people look over your shoulder? Yea, I've been there. It's intimidating. You feel like you're in the room naked. I've also been the person to sit and sketch and it's one of the most rewarding activities you can do. Just you, the artwork, and a bunch of people wishing they could do the same. Come and join me on the first Friday of the month and let's go to a gallery. These will be small groups and free of charge. We'll visit a new gallery each month, hopefully free ones and we'll do an hour or so of sketching, followed by a cuppa tea afterwards. Make sure you register so I can send you all the information a few days before the event.
