Bankside Gallery
Bankside Gallery Review
Two artistic societies—the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers and the Royal Watercolour Society—have their headquarters in this gallery next to the Tate Modern. Together they mount exhibitions of current members' work, which is usually for sale, along with art books, making this a great place for finding that exclusive, not too expensive gift. There are also regular themed exhibitions.
