Showborough House Affordable Sculpture Exhibition

Beautiful gardens to look about, and of course fabulous scultpure too. Tea/coffee/refreshments available to buy. http://www.showborough.com/

 The 2020 Affordable Garden Art Exhibition will be open as follows:  

Thursday 30th April until Saturday 13th June,  

on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holiday Monday,  

Opening hours 10:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m..  

There is no entry charge but we do welcome donations.  

There will be sculptures by about 80 sculptors. All sculptures will be  for sale and priced at under £4000, most being under £1000 and some  under £100. Exhibitors only contribute minimal commission to cover the  direct costs of the exhibition so prices are competitive and artists  benefit. Most sculptors come from Gloucestershire and surrounding  counties but a few from much further away. The exhibition is designed to  appeal to sculptors at the beginning of their careers, including  students, although some well-established sculptors who price their work  competitively do come.  

There will be a small indoor exhibition of work by local artists. This year it is kindly being curated by Araminta Fogden  

Dogs. Please do not bring dogs into the garden, apart from Guide dogs. There  are shady places to park and you are welcome to exercise your dog in the  field.  

For a small charge tea, coffee and cold drinks are available, as well as  biscuits and cake. There are many places for lunch within a few miles.  

There are some gravel paths and steps so most but not all of the garden  and exhibits are accessible by wheelchair. There are some potential  hazards for small children, such as steps and ponds, so they should be  supervised.  

Parking is in the adjacent field or on the common, on grass.  

Please check our How To Find Us page rather than relying on satellite navigation, which usually doesn’t work here.  

If you would like a reminder just before we open just send an e-mail to  showboroughhouse@gmail.com and I will put you on our e-mailing list.
