Few images are as iconic to Britain as the Underground Maps and one London exhibition has decided the time is right to present that as art. Mind the Map: Inspiring Art, Design and Cartography hopes to present the inspiration, history and creativity behind what some Londoners might take for granted; transport maps. London exhibitions like this promote photography and design, Mind the Map is sure not to disappoint in that department and pieces that have already been reviewed prove compelling. Without these maps we would not be able to find our way from estate agents Clapham to a bakery in Putney as easily as we do and besides that, they are actually quite ingeniously designed; truly worthy of a London art exhibition.

London theatre has a rich history to the world; deserved since many of the greatest playwrights of our time hail from the city. A night out at a London theatre breaks down the walls, expanding our culture and exposing us to the opinions and experiences of others. One such location is the goodwill run Roundhouse on Chalk Farm Road. Hardly a new London theatre, the Roundhouse as a property has been around since 1846 as steam-engine repair shed. A London estate agent put the property on the commercial market after the steam-engine became obsolete. The Grade II listed National Heritage Site has become somewhat of a legendary cultural venue, catering to corporate functions and events so that it can pay for its charitable programs aimed at the next generation of writers, artists and actors.
