Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden
Barbara Hepworths studio and garden have been run by the Tate since 1980, and are now an integral part of Tate St Ives. Hepworth, who died in 1975, asked in her will that Trewyn Studios and the adjacent garden, with a group of her sculptures placed as she wished, be permanently open to the public. Visiting the Museum and Garden is a unique experience, which gives remarkable insight into the work and outlook of one of Britains most important twentieth-century artists. |
| November-February: Tuesday-Sunday 10.00-16.30 The Garden closes at 16.30 or dusk, whichever is earlier March-October Open every day 10.00 - 17.30
