Art exhibition in Charlecote's gardens

Take a look at the quirky folklore art exhibition in the gardens at Charlecote Park

We're taking a look at British folklore with quirky artworks in our folklore-themed exhibition in the gardens this autumn, crafty workshops for you and a special book promotion.

*** Please note, this exhibition has now finished ***

Guaranteed to make you smile, this autumn we have an exhibition of artworks through the gardens based on British folklore. Enjoy the works of ceramics artist Ros Ingram and willow sculptures by Rachel Harwood until 20 October 2019. The exhibition resumes again after the half term Halloween trail from 4 November until 29 November 2019.

If you’re inspired to be creative yourself, why not book on to one of our folklore-themed workshops?

Local artist Ros creates memorable creatures by combining brightly glazed porcelain and reclaimed domestic objects.


Rachel is also from Stratford-upon-Avon and her experience in horticulture has given her an appreciation for willow in her natural creations.


Which of Ros and Rachel's creations is your favourite? Pick up the guide to our exhibition in Visitor Reception on your way in.
