Kerry James Marshall exhibition 2-for-1 entry with TfL

TfL and the Royal Academy of Arts are teaming up to offer 2-for-1 entry to an exhibition by Kerry James Marshall.
Kerry James Marshall: The Histories exhibition will showcase “vivid and mostly large-scale paintings that place the Black figure front and centre.” The artist builds on Western traditions of history painting and “makes visible those people who were so noticeably absent in the works that came before.” Visitors can expect to find a collection of Marshall’s work including his lived experiences and the development of civil rights.
To take advantage of the offer, visitors need to show proof of their journey on the free TfL Go app, a valid Oyster photocard or travelcard upon arrival a the Royal Academy of Arts until the 31st December.
TfL says its partnerships with leading attractions across the capital aim to encourage people to use public transport to explore London’s cultural gems. It offers customers discounts at attractions across the capital also includes Historic Royal Palaces, HMS Belfast, and Royal Museums Greenwich Cutty Sark and Royal Observatory Greenwich.
It will also be marking Black History Month this October with a number of staff events as TfL celebrates the 20th anniversary of its Raising Awareness of Culture and Ethnicity (RACE) Colleague Network Group, and the 30th anniversary of its staff magazine, On the Move, including profiling Black staff members in the October issue of the magazine and on social media.
