Justice at ten

The Supreme Court is ten years old this month, and will be marking the occasion with an Open Day on 16 October

Visitors will have a unique opportunity to explore the three courtrooms and learn about what goes on behind the scenes, how the Justices make their decisions and how the organisation has evolved. The Grade II building’s art and architecture will also be on show, with access granted to rarely seen parts of the building such as the library.

Photographer Paul Stuart, architect Elsie Owuso and the court’s chief executive, Mark Ormerod will give talks. The event is free but must be pre-booked via Eventbrite.
