Plan your festive visit to Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery! We have special opening hours over Christmas and New Year, and some rooms will be partially closed on select dates for private events.
For full details, visit our opening hours page.
Join us for a glass of wine and a special late-night opening of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery’s new exhibition — Alice Irwin: Chinwag. We will be joined by exhibition curator Svetlana Panova, who will explore the exhibition with us, elucidating the stories that are woven through it.
Over the past three years, Irwin has created a new series characterised by vibrant colours and animated forms. These artworks invite viewers into a realm of youthful creativity, blurring the lines between print, sculpture, and drawing. Panova will reflect on how Irwin explores themes of playfulness and experimentation in her prints and sculpture and what it means to curate an artist’s first major exhibition in a London-based public gallery.
Panova will also explore Irwin’s interest in themes of social interaction and the human experience and how this forms a parallel narrative with Sir John Soane’s life, and the historic setting of Soane’s neo-classical architecture.

Svetlana Panova is a Bulgarian curator and visual arts producer living and working in Aberdeen, Scotland. She graduated with a degree in Contemporary Art Practice from Gray’s School of Art and gained curatorial experience through a non-academic route whilst practising as a multidisciplinary visual artist.
Between 2019 and 2023, she worked at Aberdeen Archives, Gallery and Museums, where as Curator and Project Coordinator, she led the Jerwood Art Fund Makers Open project, a national commissioning opportunity supporting early-career artists and makers to create new and ambitious work for an exhibition touring to London, Penzance and Aberdeen. She currently works for Outer Spaces, an arts charity that supports artists from a broad range of disciplines with free studio, exhibition and project space, and freelances on visual arts projects in Scotland and the UK.
Pitzhanger Late, our monthly evening event series every first Thursday, offers a diverse roster of programs from artist talks to workshops. Open to everyone seeking enriching after-work experiences, these events vary from ticketed to free. Coinciding with our free visiting hours for Ealing residents, Pitzhanger Late is your chance to explore the Manor and its exhibitions without the usual general admission fee.
