FIRMDALE HOTELS ARE GIVING ART ENTHUSIASTS A GUIDED TOUR OF HAM YARD.  FIND OUT HOW TO COLLECT AND SUCCESSFULLY HANG ART, MAKING IT FUN AND INTERESTING WITHIN A LIVING SPACE.

Design Director, Kit Kemp’s passion for art is present within the interior design of all Firmdale Hotels with famous artists juxtaposed beside up-and-coming ones. Artworks range from Tony Cragg’s sculpture at the centre of Ham Yard Hotel’s courtyard, to the mesmerising A Million Times installation by Humans since 1982 and Martha Freud’s 32 glowing porcelain pots, which feature within the restaurant.

Starting in the Drawing Room of Ham Yard Hotel, visitors will be guided through Kit’s personally chosen art collection, before journeying on an intimate walking tour to some of Soho and Mayfair’s most prestigious galleries, led by curator Olivia Paterson.

The walk will end at Ham Yard Hotel, where guests can choose to enjoy a delicious three-course lunch or Afternoon Tea.

£99 per person, including walking tour and three-course lunch or afternoon tea

Firmdale Art Walks are back for 2018 and will take place on Saturday 3rd March, 7 April, 19 May and 9 June 2018 from 10.30am-2.30pm.
