Dulwich Picture Gallery has said that just two weeks remain to see its exhibition 'Konrad Mägi' before it closes on 12 July. The gallery’s latest email notice frames the run as a final chance to experience the show and highlights a concurrent programme of events designed to extend the visit beyond the exhibition itself, including artist talks, creative workshops, tours, performances and outdoor experiences.
The announcement comes through Dulwich Picture Gallery’s July newsletter, which is presented as a roundup of upcoming activities and reminders for visitors. In this context, 'Konrad Mägi' is positioned as the main exhibition in the gallery’s current communications, with the closing date set for 12 July. The newsletter does not supply additional curatorial details about the exhibition’s contents, but it makes clear that the show remains open for a limited time and that visitors are being encouraged to plan a final trip.
Alongside the notice about the exhibition’s last days, the gallery points to a wider schedule of public programming connected to the current moment. Those events are described broadly in the email as opportunities to “dive deeper” into the exhibition through different formats and settings. The list includes talks, workshops, tours, performances and outdoor experiences, suggesting that the gallery is using the final stretch of the run to draw audiences into a more active engagement with the material on view.
One of the dated events highlighted in the newsletter is 'Kristina Õllek and Kathleen Soriano in Conversation' on Saturday 11 July. The email says that artist Kristina Õllek and 'Konrad Mägi' exhibition curator Kathleen Soriano will explore Õllek’s creative process, the environmental questions driving her work, and how art can help imagine more hopeful futures. The same notice says Õllek has created a site-specific installation in the Gallery Mausoleum in response to Mägi’s work, opening a dialogue between past and present.
Other listed activities underline the variety of the programme around the exhibition’s final weeks. On 27 June, the gallery has scheduled 'Be inspired by Mägi' Life Drawing with 2B Or Not 2B Collective, described as an immersive drawing experience open to all abilities. On 4 July, 'Portrait Masterclass' with James Hague is billed as a chance to “dive into colour, build bold layers, and create a portrait rich in texture and feeling.”
The gallery’s newsletter also includes a free 'Out of Frame Tours' event on 9 July with historian Sacha Coward, which is described as uncovering queer stories woven into iconic artworks. Separate from the 'Konrad Mägi' exhibition, the same email promotes an 'Art & Print Market' in the Sculpture Garden on 28 June, with painters, sculptors and illustrators offering original art and prints, and notes that next month’s Ceramics Market is on 26 July.
Dulwich Picture Gallery’s message is straightforward: the exhibition closes on 12 July, and the remaining days are being marked by a dense programme of public events. The gallery’s final reminder is to make the most of the exhibition while it is still open and to see the full schedule of events before the show ends.
