Its the last few days of Drawn Out and Painted Pink at the Drill Hall in London’s Bloomsbury. It’s an exhibition of cartoons by Kate Charlesworth and David Shenton; from the description; “Kate and David have led overlapping cartooning lives during which they have, by default, documented a cultural history through 1970s’ gay life, pretty police, HIV/AIDS, Section 28 and Dale Winton to civil-partnered LGBT lives of the new millennium. The exhibition follows this ‘pink timeline’ leading visitors around the venue.” The exhibition finishes on the 28th so you still have a couple of days to catch it if you can, while tonight (25th) there’s a guided tour of the exhibition with David starting at 7.30pm; see site for full details and how to get tickets.
