This summer, the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington will hold an art competition to celebrate moving into our new laboratory. The entries will be displayed and judged at a special exhibition in Bushy House, to which local residents will be invited. The Institute of Physics will host a follow-on exhibition at its headquarters in Portland Place, London.
Entries can be in any medium provided they are wall-mountable.

The quality of all of our lives is improved in one way or another by NPL's work. NPL has a rich 100-year history and an exciting future.
