Join us for a celebratory Open House as we bring our 125th anniversary year to a close with a reception and a series of exhibitions exploring the people, places, ideas and traditions that have shaped the BSR. Discover 125 years of groundbreaking archaeological research; explore the evolution of the BSR’s graphic identity; delve into our Research Collections, including projects on Piranesi and William Gell; celebrate a century of collaboration with the Abbey Council through drawings by Abbey artists; and discover the BSR’s long tradition of hospitality, conviviality and community.

The event will be held in-person. No registration is required to attend and the entrance is free.
