Friends of the RA
In this special introductory tour for Friends, enjoy a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the Academy and find out more about our 250-year-old institution.
Since 1768, the RA has existed to champion art and artists.
Join our Collections team as they reveal the stories behind both the familiar parts and hidden corners of Burlington House and Gardens. Along the way, discover how our site has evolved through the years and gain insight into the foundation of the Royal Academy and our unique Collection.
This event is recommended for those who have recently become Friends and would like to find out more about the building and history of the RA.
Throughout May we’re celebrating Friends of the RA with a month-long series of special events and offers just for Friends.
This event is open to Friends of the RA only.
