Today's idea - Sculpture Trail



Today, a proper Sunday type thing with garden sculptures that are immensely better than the name suggests. This is just outside of Brighton, so breaks the rules a bit but looks so lovely and one of those 'traditional days out' it's too nice not to mention. At Bode Hill Garden, the strange shape of massive mushroom-like sculptures looks enticing, forming part of a 'sculpture trail'. Promising a stunning myriad of styles, materials and techniques it sounds like a good day out adventure.



"Installed by Surrey Sculpture Society and Head Gardener Andy Stevens in the tranquil setting of these beautiful landscaped gardens, the artworks will both challenge and delight spectators. As visitors follow the trail, they will discover the sculptures set against striking and varied backdrops within the series of garden ‘rooms’, demonstrating different styles of design and presentation. With changing natural light and memorable colour the trail will create a unique visual experience."

(The Green Tree Gallery will also be open for free displaying an enticing exhibition of smaller indoor pieces by Surrey Sculpture Society.)

Time: 10am-6pm
Location: Borde Hill Garden
Cost: £7.50 per adult, £6.50 Group/OAP and £4.50 per child. Gallery entry is free.
