Dulwich Picture Gallery: Famous London Art Museum Is Opening a Brand New Pavilion and Sculpture Garden

Dulwich Picture Gallery, the world's oldest purpose-built public art gallery, is opening a new £5m pavilion and sculpture garden in September 2025. The redevelopment includes the ArtPlay Pavilion designed by Carmody Groarke with artists Sarah Marsh and Stephanie Jefferies, a family cafe, and the expanded Lovington Sculpture Meadow featuring works by Amy Stephens, Tai Shani, Nika Neelova, and Harold Offeh. A two-day ArtPlay Festival on September 6-7 will celebrate the unveiling with workshops, printmaking, storytelling, and performances.

Dulwich Picture Gallery reveals opening date for redevelopment

Dulwich Picture Gallery in south-east London has announced a celebratory weekend on 6-7 September to mark the completion of its Open Art redevelopment project, the gallery's first major revamp in over 20 years. The project transforms three acres of green space, including an expanded Sculpture Garden, a new ArtPlay Pavilion for under-eights designed by HoLD Collective, and the Lovington Sculpture Meadow by landscape artist Kim Wilkie. The redevelopment, led by architects Carmody Groarke, also restores elements of Sir John Soane's original 1811 building and adds a new entrance, café, and school lunch area. The £5m project, funded by trusts, foundations, and a public campaign, still needs £20,000 to reach its target.

London's Dulwich Picture Gallery prepares to reveal £5m redevelopment

Dulwich Picture Gallery in south London will open a newly transformed sculpture garden to the public on 6-7 September, as the centerpiece of its £5m Open Art project. The redevelopment reclaims previously underused green space for a rotating programme of contemporary art on two-year loans, alongside permanent works including a land art piece by Kim Wilkie, an ArtPlay Pavilion designed by HoLD Collective and Carmody Groarke, and a new entrance restoring elements of John Soane's 1811 plans. The project is funded by principal donor The Lovington Foundation, The Julia Rausing Trust, the Manton Foundation, and a public campaign, as the gallery receives no regular government funding.
