Dear John,
You won’t want to miss this! Get your diary out, because you’re invited to a major solo exhibition and exclusive private view by internationally admired artist Gary Hodges.

A special shared history
Gary (pictured below with James Lewis, Dame Virginia McKenna and Rula Lenska), has a long and very special history with our charity. "I first met Born Free's Co-Founders Dame Virginia McKenna DBE and Bill Travers MBE, in 1989, at the Mall Galleries. Since that profound meeting of minds, I have supported Born Free at any opportunity, through exhibitions and auctions."
"With the help of my collectors, my drawings have made over £1 million for Born Free and other wildlife charities. How wonderful that October’s exhibition will be at the Mall Galleries again, bringing Virginia's and my journey full circle.”
Warm thanks to our long-term friends at Vintage Roots. At Gary’s Private View you can kick off your evening with a delightful glass of red or white wine from their organic Wild Thing range, generously provided for the welcome reception. Created in association with Born Free in 2010, Wild Thing has been raising funds for our charity ever since.
As you can tell, Gary’s Private View is set to be a remarkable, poignant and entertaining evening. So, don’t miss out and book your ticket today.
