Events going on in Brentford

MASTER GARDENER, Watermans

Narvel Roth (Joel Edgerton) is the meticulous horticulturist of Gracewood Gardens. He is as much devoted to tending the grounds of this beautiful and historic estate, as he is to pandering to his employer, the wealthy dowager Mrs Haverhill (Sigourney Weaver). However, chaos enters Narvel's spartan existence when Mrs Haverhill demands that he take on her wayward and troubled great-niece Maya (Quintessa Swindell) as a new apprentice, unlocking dark secrets from a buried violent past that threaten them all.

Spandex Synths and Stadium Rock, Back to the '80s with Art & Sol, The Musical Museum

The Musical Museum and 'Art & Sol' are teaming up this summer to stage an exhibition of iconic '80s rock and pop musicians - photographed live in concert and reinterpreted through digital portraiture.

West London was home to many major rock and pop artists who significantly influenced the music, fashion and experiences of the '80s. This exhibition provides photographs of live performances at the height of these artists careers, while providing background information on their West London connections and why they had such an effect on the '80s. 

Art & Sol unites Ealing-based Getty rock photographer Sol N'Jie, who photographed iconic rock and pop performers in concert throughout the '80s and Stella Tooth, resident artist of the Half Moon Putney, which has been playing live music since 1963. Stella has her home studio in Northfields.

Saturday, 3 June (Museum Open Day) – Monday 28 August 2023 Free entry on Open Day.
