After the clocks going forward at the weekend, we have more light to get out and play with. Make the most of it on Friday, with another TATE late in the evening sun (hopefully). A beer and art with friends watching the sunset from the heights of the Switch House viewing platform… what could be better? While you're there, don't miss the Robert Rauschenberg and the Anywhenexhibitions, which are both in their final week at the Tate Modern.
Check back regularly to keep up to date with London's latest happenings and our weekly recommendations!

The Other Art Fair | 30 March - 2 April
This fair takes the concept of the art fair and makes it both affordable for all, and gives a unique opportunity for the public to meet the artists as they stand in front of their work, as well as start a collection of their own. This show is the result of a hand curated group of artists, as selected by a panel of esteemed artists and designers.
