Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery

Pitzhanger Manor &amp; Gallery presents a special Open Sunday for London Festival of Architecture. Participants of all ages will explore the festival’s theme of ‘In Common’ with a playful, family-oriented tour of the Manor led by storyteller extraordinaire, Judy Preece, and a drop-in workshop with artist Amy Leung to design architectural models inspired by the designs of Sir John Soane, the architect of Pitzhanger. Pitzhanger Manor is the Grade 1 listed country home of Sir John Soane, designed by Soane in 1800 in what was then rural Ealing. For the first time in its history, every part of the Manor is now open to the public, surrounded by a park and a bustling urban environment. In this workshop we will look at how spaces like Pitzhanger have changed over time to better suit the common good of the communities in which they exist.Storytelling Tour with Judy Preece:Book your place now for Judy Preece’s storytelling tour!
