Saturday 26 July

Free and open to everyone
The Triumph of Art is a procession and then a party celebrating 200 years of the National Gallery. Do Your Own Thing and Jeremy Deller have been working together to make it an unmissable event!
The Do Your Own Thing Co-Producers have been making a giant puppet called Quingo Starlequinn with organisation Emergency Exit Arts. Do Your Own Thing DJs will play to the crowd from inside of the puppet during the procession and throughout the day in Trafalgar Square! There will also be an art session and a quiet space to chill out nearby.
If you attend Do Your Own Thing or Allsorts and want to take part in the procession, please get in touch to confirm your place. If you have any questions or need more information, please email us or call 020 8694 1632.
