"This outdoor exhibition presents seven stone sculptures by award-winning Herefordshire artist Jan Bruce, displayed throughout the Laskett Gardens. Three of the works were first shown here during Herefordshire Art Week, now joined by four others recently returned from national sculpture parks where they were exhibited over the summer.

Set within The Laskett’s celebrated gardens of rooms, vistas and follies, the sculptures form a collection exploring themes of connection, embrace and presence. Each sculpture is carved in Portland jurassic limestone using traditional hand tools, with an emphasis on simplicity of form and the timeless qualities of the material."

​

​

Visitors can also enjoy work by The Laskett’s artist-in-residence, Clair Hodgson @clair_hodgson, whose wide-ranging paintings and drawings are shown in the indoor gallery space. Clair is often to be found painting in the gardens themselves, capturing their atmosphere in the changing light and seasons.

​

After exploring the gardens and exhibitions, visitors can relax with tea and delicious cakes in the café, and a browse of the delighttful gift shop.
