Ever fancied snoozing next to a Cezanne? Resting your head beside a Rembrandt? If you’ve ever dreamed about dozing off next to world-famous artworks, you might just be in luck.
The National Gallery is still going big on its 200th anniversary celebrations, and as part of it, the gallery is offering one lucky person the chance to sleep overnight in a bed ‘within sight of the world’s greatest paintings’.
The winner will be the first member of the public to see the newly refurbished Sainsbury Wing following its two-year closure and rehang of its collection C C Land: The Wonder of Art. The sleepover will take place on Saturday, May 10, and the winner will also cop a private tour of the space with a National Gallery curator, and dinner for two at Locatelli, the National Gallery’s restaurant, as well as a breakfast hamper. Then, they’ll be able to enjoy the gallery’s 1000-plus artworks all to themselves before the Sainsbury Wing opens for its fist public visitors at 10am.
Fancy your own Night At The Museum? You can enter the draw from 9am on Monday April 7 if you’re over 18 and subscribe to the Gallery’s newsletter. The competition is open until 6pm on Monday April 28 after which one lucky winner will be randomly selected. All current subscribers will be automatically entered into the draw.
