Osterley Park's Creative Community Art Project
Osterley Park’s Creative Community Art Project has been designed to deepen connections with its surrounding communities and improve access to Osterley’s green spaces and heritage.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Osterley Park & House has collaborated with artist Jasmin Bhanji and local community groups to create new artworks exploring visibility, connection, and belonging. Through hands-on workshops, participants engaged with Osterley’s landscape, nature, and history using photography, embroidery, and sculpture. Now displayed across the garden, house, and parkland, these works invite visitors to see Osterley in new ways, bridging past and present.
The Camp Beds. These playful canvases in the Walled Garden (not usually open to the public) invite visitors to pause and engage with the stories woven into them - inspired by the Home Guard camouflage training that took place at Osterley.
Jesmonite Sculptures. Blurring the boundaries between domestic and wild natural forms, these bright, bold works are placed in Osterley’s historic 'Eating Room' and Garden House, challenging perceptions of what belongs inside and outside.
Community Artworks. Celebrating how the local community reflected themselves in the natural landscape, this large-scale artwork showcases photos taken by young participants, inviting visitors to consider their own presence within the space.
