To quote ‘The Independent’, “this is one of the finest contemporary art museums in Europe”, and it’s on our doorstep. Named after the world renowned Wakefield sculptor Barbara Hepworth, the gallery has an extensive range of her beautiful sculptures. From the approach to the museum over the footbridge across the river, taking in the striking cubist inspired gallery building; to the imaginatively grouped exhibits, this is a great afternoon out; and it’s all free!
