Talk: Exploring The Ingram Collection

Join us for a special evening with Jo Baring, Director of The Ingram Collection to explore the collection behind the exhibition Lines of Influence: Twentieth Century British Printmaking.

Jo will reveal fascinating stories behind the artworks and shed light on how one of the most significant publicly accessible collections of Modern British Art has evolved.
