Katie at the National Gallery

Where does time go? It’s over three weeks since the National Gallery in London launched their gorgeous “Katie” range, and I have been meaning to write a few words ever since. It was a super day of stories and pictures, and the quality of the merchandise is top of the range. It’s a colossal honour to have Katie adopted as an official children’s mascot by probably the greatest art museum in Northern Europe, and they could not have done it better, and I am so grateful to everyone there. The merchandise is exclusive to the National Gallery but can be purchased online by clicking HERE if you can’t get to London. Every purchase supports the National Gallery!

Here are some pictures of a wonderful, celebratory day.
