| | Stuff for you to do this weekend | | | | Snoop around some fancy digs | | Open House – the annual festival of architecture that lets you mosey around buildings usually closed to the public – is a little different in 2020. While some buildings are open to the great unwashed, most of it (as you’d expect) has gone online. Check out what’s on offer (the tour of Her Majesty’s Treasury caught our eye). | | The best of the rest: | Painted ladies This weekend is your last chance to check out the Aubrey Beardsley exhibition . Prepare to have your preconceptions about the Victorians destroyed.
Digi-boot It’s an art fair. It’s a car-boot sale. It’s all online. Fill up on surprisingly affordable stuff this Sunday, courtesy of Gavin Turk and pals.
Food and that If you’re in the area, we strongly suggest you check out the now-weekly Herne Hill Market on Sunday.
