David Bowie at Lightroom: an evening with fellow Scholars

We have a few places remaining for a special evening on Friday 16 October 2026, hosted by fellow Kennedy Scholar Dr Thomas Wide (Harvard 2008), to experience David Bowie at Lightroom.

The acclaimed immersive exhibition celebrates the life, music and creative legacy of one of Britain’s most influential artists. Drawing on Bowie’s own words, music and archive, it brings together spectacular large-scale visuals and sound to explore the ideas, creativity and cultural impact that made him one of the most original figures of the modern age.

Scholars will be welcomed with a drink on arrival. Tommy will then introduce the exhibition and share a little about Lightroom’s distinctive approach to immersive storytelling. After the performance, there will be a chance to stay for drinks and conversation with fellow Scholars.

When: Friday 16 October 2026, 6pm arrival for a 6.30pm performance

Where: Lightroom, 12 Lewis Cubitt Square, King’s Cross, London N1C 4DY

We are very grateful to Tommy and the Lightroom team for their generosity in making this evening possible. We are always delighted to hear from Scholars who can create opportunities to bring the community together.

Places are first come, first served. Please get in touch if you would like to attend.
