Linda Wormald's Garden Gallery, York

Linda Wormald & her Garden Gallery

Towards the end of 2021 I discovered a little gem of a gallery in York. It's called the Garden Gallery and it's run by a very talented lady called Linda Wormald. Linda is a contemporary artist who specialises in landscapes and seascapes inspired by North Yorkshire & Scotland. Her paintings, in acrylics and oils on canvas, are a delight of colour and texture.

The Garden Gallery

In her gallery, as well as Linda's own art, you will find a treasure trove of work by local artists and makers. In fact, a number of my friends received Christmas presents that I found there.

Anyway there are two pieces of good news. The first is that the gallery reopens for spring on Thurday 10 March 2022. And the second is that you'll be able to buy my work there too!

A selection of Hippystitch Button Brooches

You'll be able to find a selection of my fabric necklaces, button bracelets and brooches. And if you need something to carry your purchases away, there'll also be some of my screen printed bike bags!

Linda Wormald's Garden Gallery reopens on Thursday 10 March 2022 and can be found at 3 Windmill Lane, York, YO10 3LG. It is open from Thursday to Saturday from 10.30am until 4pm. Go see!

If you happen to be a member at York's David Lloyd club, it's just a short walk from the carpark and you can combine it with some exercise.

THE GARDEN GALLERY IS NOW CLOSED UNTIL LATER IN THE YEAR

The Ropewalk - Barton upon Humber

If you've never ventured to Barton upon Humber in North Lincolnshire now is the time! And if you live north of the Humber you can take in a trip over the magnificent Humber Bridge on the way (a must for civil engineering fans & not quite as expensive as it used to be either!). Facts of the day - open since 1981, the Humber Bridge is the 5th largest single span suspension bridge in the world.

The Ropewalk - View from the Sculpture Garden

Let's get back to the point though - Barton has this fabulous place called The Ropewalk. Housed in a former rope factory, the Ropewalk is a centre for the arts. It has galleries including a gallery shop, a sculpture garden, coffee shop (which is extremely fabulous and not to be missed), a museum detailing the history of ropemaking at the factory, meeting rooms, artists studios, picture framing & Ropery Hall which is a venue for film, theatre, comedy & music.
