Back in 2015 I was caught between trying to move out of teaching and back into hospitality. Frustrated in London, I took a work placement in Los Angeles for 5 months at the start of the year with a half-a-mind to extend it further. Behind This Wall had run its course as a club residency in London with the closure of Plastic People, but we’d always dallied a little in making up drinks and running peripatetic bars & sound-systems in unloved spaces.

Tonight sees the launch of our Winter exhibit by Richie Round-Turner. Rich takes the pictures of the bar up on the site and has put together this project around our menu theme for Winter: “Into the Woods”. While the drinks will follow on from next week as the season (officially) changes, we are launching the exhibit tonight and may have a few advance peeks from the menu to try.

If you’ve been in recently it’s hard not to notice Jonathan’s vibrant prints adorning the walls. As per, the exhibit was curated by Des & to to toast the fact that we’ve added the prints to our store today, she pinned down JT for a words about the exhibit.

For our regulars, Flora is responsible for the beautiful photographs that adorn the walls at the bar.
