Thursday - Art In St Ives.
St Ives has long been famous for the quality of its light and its stunning scenery. Artists have been drawn here since the early 19th century and are still in the town living, visiting and working. We are lucky to have many high quality galleries including the world famous Tate St Ives, Hepworth Museum and Leach Pottery. During this tour you will gain an insight into the lives of the artists who came to this small remote fishing village during the twentieth century, and established its reputation as one of the world’s foremost centres for modernist art.
