Lates: The Friendship Effect @ Wellcome Collection, London

Friendship in all its forms can improve our health and happiness. But what is a friend, and in an age of ideals, are our expectations becoming unrealistic?

Join us for the next in our series of Wellcome Collection Lates to explore and celebrate this most human bond, through playful conversations, live music, workshops, pop-up performances, talks and more. You might even leave with a new friend or two.

Grab a cocktail or food from our café or find a gift for a friend in our shop. Our exhibitions, pop-up bar, café and shop will be open all evening.

For a break from the action, take advantage of our chill out space. This space has low lighting, comfortable seating, cushions, mats and space to move around and be yourself.
