As autumn settles over Pitzhanger, we are looking both ahead and around us: to a new year of exhibitions, to ‘Clare Woods: Garden Without Seasons’ as it enters its final weeks, and to families making the most of the garden at half-term.

This August, Pitzhanger is a place for looking closely and making freely. Step inside Clare Woods’s newly opened exhibition, join three days of child-led play in the garden, and meet Monique Kaur Kellay, whose work is helping more families and communities find their place here. Read on for new ways to visit, take part and return.

Summer at Pitzhanger is full of colour and pattern — in our exhibitions, our gardens, our family programmes and the restored rooms of the manor.

As summer begins at Pitzhanger, discover Clare Woods’ upcoming exhibition, celebrate the people who care for our gardens, and explore events and creative projects across the site.

This May, discover family workshops, contemporary exhibitions and stories from across Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery — from messy play and clay making to the final weeks of Phoebe Collings-James and the hand-printed world of Marthe Armitage.

Discover a major new exhibition celebrating one of Britain’s most iconic artists.

Effective from 10 March 2026.

Featured in The Sunday Times and RA Magazine — meet “the queen of wallpaper”.

This Spring, the artist Phoebe Collings-James (b.1987) will bring new sculpture and ceramic work to Pitzhanger, the first time these works will be shown in the UK.
