House of Fun Exhibition

Details

A little weird. A lot wonderful. Art that’s immersive, surreal, and seriously selfie-worthy. Explore stories of parties, excess, and fun in a new playful and interactive exhibition – expect costumes, games, and a space made for wild imaginations! This exhibition sees two large installations by contemporary artists, Pippa Hale and Bruce Asbestos. Hang out in the Whistlejacket Room in the Friendship Folly, and see Final Boss, a monster cake in the Marble Saloon. This exhibition will also see the return of some of the most artistically important portraits in British history, including works by Sir Anthony van Dyck, Joshua Reynolds and Daniel Mytens.
