Anthony Browne needs little introduction as one of Britain’s leading book illustrators. With over forty books to his name as both author and illustrator he has a worldwide reputation, and his formidable talent, his versatility, and his ability to appeal to many age groups has established him as a universally popular favourite.

Illustrationcupboard Gallery is proud to commemorate the centenary of World War I with a unique exhibition celebrating the dramatisation of Michael Morpurgo’s book War Horse. First published in 1982 this wartime tale has become an international phenomenon. The stage play, launched at The National Theatre in 2007, has become one of the greatest British productions and seen by over 3 million people worldwide.

Illustrationcupboard Gallery is excited to be hosting the book launch for Babette Cole's new hilarious picture book James Rabbit and the Giggleberries published by Mabecron Books on Wednesday 23 July, 2-7pm.

We are delighted to commence our annual Summer Exhibition on Wednesday 11th of June (5.30pm onwards) with a focus on the talented Alexis Deacon. Alexis’s work displays virtuosity in both content and technique with a rare ability to address both lighter and darker sides of human nature. This talent was recently acknowledged by his inclusion in the Victoria and Albert Museum exhibition Sky Arts Ignition: Memory Palace. We are pleased to host a book launch for Alexis's illustrations for the newly published version of Russell Hoban's classic tale Jim’s Lion. Original artwork will be available to purchase and Alexis will be in attendance on Wednesday 11th of June to sign copies of the book, (£9.99).
