On 23 June 2025, Apollo celebrated its centenary with a dinner at the National Gallery in London. More than 100 artists, museum directors, curators, art historians and dealers from around the world attended to mark the occasion. The evening was generously supported by our partners Loewe and Ruinart.
Here’s to another 100 years.
