Whispers of the Wilderness: Exploring Wilderness Gardens

Step into a world where art and nature intertwine in Beningbrough’s most immersive exhibition yet. Whispers of the Wilderness celebrates the hall’s historic Wilderness Garden through a sensory-rich journey of sculpture, sound, scent, and story.
Highlights include:
* Striking willow sculptures by acclaimed artist Laura Ellen Bacon, echoing the wild energy of the garden.
* Historic artworks from the National Trust collection, tracing the 18th-century fascination with wilderness gardens.
* A hands-on drawing studio by artist Tanya Raabe-Webber, inviting visitors of all ages to sketch, relax, and connect with nature.
* Soundscapes, poetry, and literature that bring the garden’s spirit indoors.
This exhibition coincides with the ongoing garden transformation by award-winning designer Andy Sturgeon, making it the perfect time to explore Beningbrough inside and out.
