House of Illustration/Quentin Blake Centre
Bad news for the House of Illustration that its to close but good news that its to resurface as the Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration in a major £8m refurbishment project to become the world’s largest public arts space dedicated to illustration.
The renamed Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration will be a new cultural landmark for the UK, redeveloping New River Head in Islington, London into what will also be a permanent home for the archive of the organisation’s founder, Sir Quentin Blake, with selections from his archive of more than 40,000 works on permanent display.
