The Great Exhibition Road Festival is an arts and sciences festival launched in 2019, bringing together iconic museums and cultural organisations — including Imperial College London, the Royal Albert Hall, the Science Museum, the V&A, and the Natural History Museum. The 2025 edition welcomed 55,000 visitors over two days of creative workshops, talks, performances, and installations. For 2026, the Festival aims to attract 60,000 visitors.
Ebru is the Turkish art of paper marbling — a method of aqueous surface design created by scattering insoluble pigments onto thickened water before transferring the patterns onto paper. While guided by technique and experience, each composition emerges through the interaction between pigment, water, and movement, making every print entirely unique.
