ShareWhether you’re a garden lover, art aficionado or simply a St Ives devotee you can’t fail to fall for the magic of the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden.
Perched on a hill just minutes from its Tate St Ives counterpart, this entrancing attraction is laid out largely as it was by Barbara Hepworth herself.
It offers a unique experience and provides a remarkable insight into the work and outlook of one of Britain's most important twentieth century artists. Sculptures in bronze, stone and wood are on display in the Museum and Garden, along with paintings, drawings and archive material.
Kids will enjoy exploring the magical environment of the Hepworth Family Activity Trail.
