Price Range:

An evening where art is created in real time.

The Portrait Salon is designed as a living studio experience. Hosted in a gallery in Mayfair, members will rotate through short portrait sittings with a charcoal artist, while the rest of the room mingles, observes the creative process and enjoys light music.

As the portraits take shape, the room becomes both salon and studio. Conversation flowing easily between sittings, champagne in hand, with the quiet fascination of watching art emerge from paper and charcoal.

Small plates and drinks will be served throughout the evening, creating a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere.

At the end of the night, each member leaves with her own portrait, placed in an envelope. A small piece of the evening to take home.
