Relive Jubilee flotilla at festival art show

 
30 August 2013

Artworks celebrating the flotilla of boats that accompanied the Queen for the Diamond Jubilee pageant are going on public display next week as part of the Mayor’s Thames Festival.

Almost a million people lined seven miles of the Thames to see the tugs, dragon boats, steamers, pleasure boats and kayaks follow the royal barge Gloriana. Fifty works by those who sketched, photographed and painted the scenes will be shown at The Artists of the River Pageant exhibition, at the Pump House Gallery, Battersea Park, from Wednesday. The festival celebrates the river with art, music, and educational events from Friday until September 15.
