Celebrating Membership: 20 years

This year the National Portrait Gallery is celebrating twenty years since the launch of our Membership scheme. To mark this milestone and to recognise their continued support a competition was launched for six members to win a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – a portrait taken by photographer Tereza Červeňová, winner of the John Kobal New Work Award in 2015. These are now on display in the Gallery until 10 March 2019.
