About Us
Come and join us at Nature in Art as we celebrate Earth Day. Throughout the day, there will be fun activities to get involved with, from making insect hotels to feathery bird masks (+ much more). Family activities are linked to 'The Wild Escape', which is an initiative led by The Art Fund to engage young people with the UK's natural environment through art. Activities will also relate to birds and to the theme of Earth Day 2023: Invest in our Planet.
JRCS Falconry will be joining us to show a magnificent selection of Birds of Prey. There will be short talks throughout the day and the opportunity to get close to these impressive birds.
Take part in a scavenger hunt in the garden and enter the raffle. Watch artist, Trevor Smith at work, sketching the Birds of Prey. He will also be demonstrating how to draw the birds – why not give it a go yourself!
Your entry to the family day also includes admission to the rest of the museum. Whilst you are here, take the chance to visit 'Secrets of the Studio', an exhibition of the work of Elizabeth Gray who had a long association with Nature in Art. Also on show are select works (relating to predominantly British wildlife) from the Nature in Art Collection. There is also the opportunity to see a second artist at work: this week's Artist in Residence, Philip Nelson, who specialises in decorative decoys. He will be working in the Artist's Studio.
The coffee shop and gift shop will be open as usual.
