April Showers

April was never a popular month for writers. For Chaucer it's always a wash out; and according to TS Eliot, 'April is the cruellest month'. Get a grip, chaps, I say. Spring is springing and we've just survived one of the nastiest winters on record, so what's not to love? April, my dear, all is forgiven.

For the art and film worlds, this month is most definitely cruelty-free. The newly extended and spruced up Whitechapel art gallery flings open its doors on a £13 million expansion.

The London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival is high kicking at a cinema near you. While at the Wellcome Institute you can compare our current state of mind to that of Vienna's in 1900, helping us to imagine what Freud would have made of our spiraling madness.

And if you're still feeling the damp and chill, take a trip to Cuba's much-awaited Havana Biennial - online. For this, you won't even need a brolly.
