The main gallery will be closed for exhibition changeover from 11–22 November. Pitzhanger Manor remains open, although some rooms may be temporarily unavailable.
Pay What You Can admission is available to all visitors who would normally pay for entry during this period.
Offers and talks to celebrate the last month of the family-friendly exhibition.
We are approaching the last month of Matt Dixon’s ‘A Sense of Wonder’ exhibition, an exhibition ranked as one of the must-sees in London this winter. Don’t miss the last chance to see the life-size robot figures and try the beta version of Matt’s upcoming robot game.
Kids go free every Saturday until 11 February
‘A Sense of Wonder’ is an exhibition for the whole family. We offer free admission every Saturday for kids under 16. They can visit Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery for free with a paying adult or member.
We also have more admission discounts and concessions. Read more on our Tickets page.
Join us on the last Thursday in January for our Pitzhanger Late with a talk by contemporary artist Janette Parris to celebrate the art of digital illustration.
Janette Parris is a renowned digital illustrator who uses drawing, animation and performance to reflect a dry and self-effacing look at the world, capturing the humorous essence of life and the sharp melancholic edge that goes with it. Her works were exhibited at Tate, the Royal Academy of Arts, and the Institute of Contemporary Arts. Hear from Parris as she reveals the stories behind her drawings and animations.
2 February: A Conversation with Matt Dixon and Mark Stirling
Matt Dixon will be back at Pitzhanger for another artist talk in February. He will bring Applied Arts’ Senior Artist Mark Stirling with him and reveal the magic behind translating Matt’s illustrations into life-size robot figures in the exhibition.
Find out about the different phases of the collaborative fabrication process, how Mark interpreted subtle cues in the robot’s poses in 3D and the difference between the virtual 3D of Matt’s video game design and the physical forms.
Comic Competition – winning works on display from 2 February
We received enthusiastic entries to the ‘A Sense of Wonder’ Comic Competition. They are now with Matt Dixon, and he is working hard to pick the winning comics. We will announce the winners and put their works on display at Pitzhanger Gallery from 2 February!
‘A Sense of Wonder’: The Curious Robot World of Matt Dixon opens every Wednesday to Sunday at Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery until 12 February. Come and interact with life-size robot figures, lenticular prints, augmented-reality features and more before it closes.
We offer free admission to everyone every Wednesday and Ealing resident every Sunday morning. And don’t forget to check out the items on sale at our shop in January! See you soon!

A New Season at Pitzhanger: 2027 Exhibitions Revealed
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.
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.
Half-Term, Phoebe Collings-James & More at Pitzhanger
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.
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.
Please note that the Eating Room and the Upper Drawing Room in Pitzhanger Manor will be closed at 3–5pm on 17 October for a private function. Artworks in the affected space will be temporarily off view, but General Admission continues as usual. All rooms will be open before and after this time during our regular opening hours.
