What's On
This page has some events that may be of interest to photographers. They are mainly relevant to our own Sevenoaks members, so are mostly in Kent/London/SE England, and our information is from various sources. (We do not vouch for the shows personally as most are added to the page before they open.)
The items are in the order of those ending first, so you have more time to plan for those further down the list.
We obviously try to ensure that the details are correct, but we haven't given opening times and any entry charges, etc. We recommend that you check details before visiting - especially as we've seen that closing dates sometimes change. (Any links to external websites will open in a new browser window.)
