A glitzy London celebration evening is being held to re-announce the architect for Colchester's £16 million new art gallery.
The evening, which is expected to cost up to £3,000, will come five days after the first announcement is made in Colchester.
Kath Wood, director of the new Firstsite Newsite gallery, said: "We would never announce it in London first - it's Colchester that's important."
Ms Wood said the London evening was "a thing we have to do to help fundraising".
