Learning, thinking, making

Henry Moore Studios & Gardens, Hertfordshire

Henry Moore’s focus on sculpture was not only as a practitioner, but also as a scholar, teacher, writer and supporter.

Our mission is to help you engage with the visual arts, sculpture, and Moore.

Take a free guided tour with your education group, participate in events led by creative professionals, or develop a collaborative project with us and your community group.
