Kolkata Art Exhibition

We are delighted to welcome back artist Antonia Covarrubias for her new exhibition ‘Kolkata’, which aims to showcase a key aspect of the "City of Joy"—as described by author Dominique Lapierre — the beauty that led Mother Teresa to love the people, the nature and the streets of Calcutta, where even in the midst of extreme suffering, one can also find the love of God shared with great generosity and joy.

The exhibition is on the ground floor at 114 Mount Street (M-F 10.30-18.30, Sat Sun 10.00-15.00) until 31 July.
