National Portrait Gallery’s Inspiring People Project

 


National Portrait Gallery’s Inspiring People Project

We are excited to announce a £4m donation to the National Portrait Gallery.  Proceeds from the donation will help to transform the National Portrait Gallery’s biggest development of its building in St Martin’s Place since 1896. This includes the opening up of previously closed-off areas, to provide a new outdoor public space in Central London. The donation will also support the Gallery’s ambitious programme of activities across the UK, helping drive access to the its important work for communities around the country. In recognition of the donation, the Gallery today announces that the new North Façade entrance and public space will be named Ross Place.
