Visits & Study Days
Visit to Winterbourne House and Garden and the Barber Institute
Tuesday 29th October 2024 9am to 5pm
Winterbourne was designed as a small Edwardian country estate in the Arts and
Crafts style, built for John Nettlefold, a pioneer of early housing reform. The gardens
were inspired by Gertrude Jekyll and now form the University of Birmingham Botanic
Gardens. An exhibition of the work of local Leicester artist Helen Newton will also be
on display.
The Barber Institute hosts the exhibition ‘Scent
and the Art of the Pre-Raphaelites’
which enables us to sniff the scents associated
with the paintings.
The cost of the day will be: Members £28.00
guests £30.00.
