Last chance to see Chihuly

Sat April 21 at 1:00 PM, Halcyon Gallery, 144-146 New Bond St, W1S 2PF
144-146 New Bond St, London, Greater London W1S 2PF, UK (Map & Directions)
I've left it horrendously late, as usual, to see the Chihuly exhibition at the Halcyon Gallery in New Bond Street, and Saturday is the last day, so I'm definitely going. Would anyone like to join me?
It's free, and if you're not familiar with Chihuly's work, it's worth seeing. Chihuly created the fantastic ceiling at the Bellagio in Las Vegas and a few years ago his work was featured at the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew, which was the perfect backdrop for his organic glass sculptures.

Is anyone in? Let's meet outside the Gallery, which is at 144-146 New Bond Street, midway down Bond Street, near Sothebys, at 1pm. Then afterwards we can find a pub/cafe somewhere for food and drink.

Looks interesting, hope I can make it but might be a bit busy Saturday. Address seems to be 29 New Bond Street, London, W1S 2RL for TFL/Google Maps purposes.

The Gallery that Chihuly is at is at 144-146 New Bond Street. They have another gallery at 29 New Bond Street. I'll edit the post to include the link.

Yeah, the Bellagio ceiling is breathtaking. I'm a wannabe glassblower, so I'm definitely in.

If it's beautiful I'm all for looking, should be able to make it.

As with our Speaker's Corner meetup, it's going to rain tomorrow, but at least this time we'll be indoors.

See you guys outside the gallery at 1pm.

I'm going to have to bow out of this one, I'm afraid. Hope you all have fun!
