The Great Gardens' Great Art Auction 2023

12 June 2023

A unique art experience brought to you by the Great Gardens of Cornwall

Designed to celebrate spring and raise money for the Cornwall Community Foundation, the Great Art Auction provides a unique experience and is brought to you by The Great Gardens of Cornwall.

Each garden is a space where visitors can connect with nature, nurture their mental health and support their wellbeing.

The Cornwall Community Foundation facilitates grassroots and community-led organisations across Cornwall that change people’s lives and cultivates strong, resilient communities across our beautiful county.

Joining forces to support their vital work, 9 of the Great Gardens, including Trebah Garden, Caerhays Castle Garden and The Lost Gardens of Heligan, have invited an artist to create artwork to celebrate what spring means to them, each taking a garden as inspiration.  

This unique collection will be exhibited and auctioned in aid of Cornwall Community Foundation, an organisation they're proud to help grow.

The exhibition will take place for one week at Lemon Street Market in Truro from the 13th-20th of June 2023 (open 9am-5pm; closed Sunday 18th).

The auction is open to the public and will take place on the evening of Tuesday the 20th June. Doors will open at 6.30pm for a drinks reception, and bidding will start at 7.30pm.
