Seventy new sculptures from across the UK and beyond will be on display at the Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park from next week.

The park's second Sculpture in the Landscape exhibition introduces artists from as far afield as Norway and Germany as well as Yorkshire. 

Organisers says it showcases a "diverse array of sculptures that harmonise with the natural beauty of the landscape" to create an "immersive journey through the marriage of art and nature".

Will Roberts, from the Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park, which is near Masham, said:

This year's exhibition features a rich tapestry of creative expressions, offering visitors an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in the beauty of both the sculptural and natural worlds and provides a platform for established and emerging artists to showcase their talent while fostering dialogue about the environment, culture, and society.

The park, which has 90 permanent sculptures, covers 45 acres of gardens, lakes and an arboretum, which has one of the North’s largest collections of rhododendrons, azaleas and magnolias.

The exhibition is open to the public from Tuesday, April 8 to the end of October 2025 during normal opening hours.
