2026 Summer Garden Party

Please join us at Dorich House Museum on Saturday 27 June for our annual Summer Garden Party. Bring your friends, enjoy a complimentary glass of prosecco and relax in our walled orchard garden while listening to live music from Kingston University Performing Arts students.

Alongside our permanent collection, we have two exhibitions.  In the modelling studio on the first floor: Undiminished: Rebalancing the female narrative of menopause by Kingston University Associate Professor in Physiology and Pharmacology, Dr Francesca Arrigoni-Halliday and in the apartment on the second floor, works in bronze by student finalists of the 2026 REMET Art Prize. This year’s competition winner will be announced at the Garden Party.

Please note that space is limited in our free onsite car park, so we encourage you to travel by public transport (85 or K3 bus, nearest stop: Dorich House Museum) or cycle (cycle racks are available).  If you are a Blue Badge holder, please let us know in advance so we can reserve a space for you.
