All are welcome to join the Justice and Peace Outing to Kew Gardens on Sunday 2nd June 2024
Join Fr Dominic Robinson SJ and Colette Joyce on an exploration of the world famous botanical gardens to see Marc Quinn’s sculpture exhibition, ‘Light and Life’. All are welcome. No prior connection to Justice & Peace needed!
Marc Quinn has long been interested in the links between nature and humanity, and this exhibition brings that complex relationship to life. The mirrored effect of many of the stainless-steel sculptures blurs the boundaries between the viewer, the sculpture and the landscape, giving every visitor a unique experience of the artworks. Their reflection encourages viewers to see themselves as a part of the artwork and a part of the landscape.
Please purchase your own tickets in advance via the Kew website (there are different pricing options) or on arrival.
The meeting point is just inside the ticket barriers at the Victoria Gate entrance at 12.30pm where we will begin the day with prayers and a picnic lunch.
We will have lunch together near the Victoria Gate café. Drinks, sandwiches and cakes are available to purchase in the café or bring a picnic with you.
