Soane’s Starfish Domes: From Pitzhanger to 10 Downing Street
Overview
For those looking for respite from the election night machine, our Thursday Late will offer a tour of the manor at 6.30pm including the chance to see Soane’s “starfish” dome ceiling in the library, a forerunner to his designs for the state dining room at 10 Downing Street. Join a workshop for all ages and take inspiration from Soane’s banquets—who would you invite to your perfect dinner party?
The pay bar will be open for those looking for a quiet and sophisticated drink in beautiful surroundings, courtesy of our partners Bella Pulgia.
Entry to the manor on Thursday Lates is free to Ealing Residents so there’s every reason to drop by.

Thursday Lates, 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, Thursday Lates is your chance to explore the manor and its exhibitions without the usual general admission fee.
