NEVER MISS AN EXHIBITION AGAIN We're the only people bringing you ALL London exhibitions - not just ones about Art (though we have plenty of them too!). Each one is categorised, making it easier to find more of what you love. Here are just some of the different types of exhibitions you can expect to find: Family friendly Photography Black Culture Women artists Architecture Local History Fashion Sports + Loads more Exhibits was started by two sisters who were lucky enough to grow up going to exhibitions on the weekends with their parents. As adults, they found themselves missing awesome exhibitions all the time...eventually enough was enough! One half of the dynamic duo, Δ°layda, learnt to code and built the Exhibits app herself! Trust us when we say we've built an app we'd *actually* like to use. With over 450 galleries and museums in London, we believe there's something for everyone to enjoy. It's just a matter of finding it in time.
