KQ Private View | Where We Grow: Nature, Nurture & Childhood
The Knowledge Quarter invites you to join us for a new exhibition at the Foundling Museum, 'Where We Grow: Nature, Nurture & Childhood'.
Through contemporary art, photography, archival material and historic objects, this exhibition reveals how nature can offer freedom, imagination and belonging and asks what happens when access to it is unequal.
This tour will be led by Emma Ridgway, the CEO and Artistic Director of the Foundling Museum. Emma has extensive experience with curating projects for the Barbican Centre, the Royal Society of Arts, the Serpentine Gallery, amongst many more impressive institutions. We're so thrilled she's able to lead us through what will be an incredible exhibition.
