About this event

Nature is the muse for this spring art exhibition, featuring artists from Cornwall and beyond.

Drawn by Nature is a group art exhibition exploring the beauty and fragility of the natural world. The show features work from five stylistically diverse visual creatives – artists Wendy Rolt and Stuart Rowe, designers Sarah Fortescue and George Winks, and sculptor Shelley Montague – all connected by the inspiration and joy they glean from their outdoor surroundings. The exhibition is free to attend and will also feature exclusive poetry by actor, comedian and writer Edward Rowe and poet Bryony Partridge.

On the last day of the exhibition (3rd May), the work of the Drawn By Nature collective will be joined in the gallery by artworks from students of Truro High School for Girls.

This collaborative art and design event promises to be a varied and fascinating exploration of the natural world, from the wilds of Cornwall to the vibrant coral reefs of South Africa. Some works respond to the theme of nature with playfulness and colour and others through the lens of history and story.
