Tate Modern is Britain’s national gallery of modern and contemporary art. During this intimate masterclass, Guardian art critic Jonathan Jones will guide a small group of people around this world-renowned gallery, exploring works by artists such as Mark Rothko, Marcel Duchamp, Joseph Beuys and Pablo Picasso.

Over the course of the evening, you’ll learn how to appreciate and interpret great works of international art. Plus, you’ll discover how to enjoy art more fully, and have plenty of opportunities to chat with Jonathan and ask any questions you might have about art.

Suitable for beginners or those who want to deepen their understanding of art, this is a phenomenal opportunity to explore one of the world’s finest collections with one of the UK’s most passionate art critics.
