ii) Andrea Tarsia

Head of Exhibitions and Projects

My weekend canal stroll starts at Ancient & Modern, then past St Luke’s Church and on to Parasol Unit and Victoria Miro. From there walk along Regents Canal, off of which are Rachmaninoff’s, The Drawing Room and MOT. After MOT head for a drink at The Dove on Broadway Market before finishing off at the galleries on Vyner Street.
