Visit the Sámi Exhibition in London

Somerset House hosts a free Sámi photography show in central London from autumn 2026 through winter.

Neighbour tip

Bring a friend who has never visited before; shared first visits help you remember names, routes, and follow-up events you might skip alone.

What you can do in London

• Ask a volunteer what follow-up dates they recommend for newcomers before you leave the site
• Reserve or walk in for Through Our Eyes during published gallery hours (Somerset House listing)
• Read artist statements and community texts that accompany each room
• Join talks and workshops when Somerset House adds them to the calendar
• Pair the visit with the venue's riverfront public spaces for informal meet-ups with friends

How to join

The exhibition runs 6 November 2026–7 February 2027 and is free on the organiser page. Check Somerset House for any timed-entry requests during busy weekends. Large groups should contact the venue ahead for accessibility and capacity.

When & where

Somerset House, Strand, London. Entrance details and hours are on the organiser page; allow time for security checks at busy cultural weekends.

Why it matters in London

Sámi image-makers often travel long distances for a single gallery week. A central London run lets diaspora neighbours and curious residents encounter Sámi self-representation without booking a flight to the north.

Bring a notebook; details you capture on site help your block organise a return visit or small solidarity fund drive.

Good to know

• Is booking required? The listing describes free entry; Somerset House may use tickets for capacity during peaks - read the page before you go.
• Are there age limits? Family-friendly rooms are usual; verify any evening events separately.
• Will the show tour elsewhere? Somerset House notes future venues; this row covers the London dates only.
