Join us for a special after-hours event exploring Occupied / Unoccupied, our current exhibition by Ukrainian photographer Iryna Sozanska.

The evening begins with an exclusive opportunity to view the exhibition outside of normal museum opening hours, giving you time to explore the photographs, personal objects and artworks that tell the story of Iryna’s experience of living under Russian occupation and rebuilding life in the UK.

Following the viewing, Iryna will be in conversation about her experiences, the stories behind the exhibition, and how photography and personal objects have helped her document this extraordinary period of her life. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions.

After the talk, there will be additional time to revisit the exhibition with a new understanding of the photographs and objects on display.

This event offers a chance to gain a deeper understanding of the exhibition directly from Iryna and hear the personal stories that bring each object and photograph to life.

This is also a fundraising event in support of Ukraine Relief. All profits will be donated to help provide humanitarian aid to people affected by the war in Ukraine.

Event includes:

• Exclusive after-hours access to Occupied / Unoccupied
• A talk with photographer Iryna Sozanska
• Audience Q&A
• Fundraising in support of Ukraine Relief
• Welcome drink and tasters of Ukrainian food

Spaces are limited, so advance booking is essential.
