For any of our London-based readers looking for something to do this weekend, we’ve got a suggestion for you.  Check out the Imperial War Museum’s “Truth and Memory” exhibition.  From IWM’s website:

The largest exhibition of British First World War art for almost 100 years, this major retrospective reveals how artists helped commemorate the First World War and shape a memory of the conflict that endures to this day.

And if any of you know of similar exhibitions elsewhere, we’d love to hear about them!
