This year marks the 10th anniversary of Film4 Summer Screen at Somerset House. The last 10 years has seen this event grow to be a 2 week celebration of film, with the 2015 series comprising of 16 film screenings and the Summer Screen Prints film poster exhibition. This year’s fantastic line-up of films includes Roman Holiday, The Silence of the Lambs and West Side Story. Take a picnic and some blankets and settle down in the beautiful courtyard to watch one of your favourite films. There is also the opportunity to visit the Behind the Screen exhibition in Somerset House itself, which will host various activities including workshops and talks from writers and directors. Each year the tickets to this event sell out faster, so make sure you grab some while they are still available.
We have recently let part of the sixth floor of Brettenham House on Lancaster Place. Located next to Somerset House, we hope that Brettenham House’s newest members will make the most of all the events on offer in the area.
