Art History Festival 2024
Monday 16 – Sunday 22 September
The Association for Art History’s Art History Festival is a free, annual event for the public which celebrates and explores the histories of art, design and architecture showing how these subjects help us to better understand the world around us. The programme consists of in-person and online events offered by organisations and individuals from across the UK during one week in September.
Art History Festival 2024 is now on – taking place between Monday 16 – Sunday 22 September. This year’s theme is Art History: Local to Global, celebrating art and visual culture that draws inspiration from local history and tradition, including art that breathes new life into communities or that transcends borders. Our programme of events includes talks, tours, demonstrations, workshops, panel discussions, walks, family events, family workshops, and community-driven and youth art events.
We are grateful for the generous support of the National Gallery Trust
