Naming The Hepworth Wakefield
The Hepworth Wakefield is named in tribute to one of Britain's most acclaimed artists, Wakefield born sculptor Dame Barbara Hepworth.
Her works and creative passion are a lasting legacy that has inspired us to develop The Hepworth Wakefield as a place that is accessible to all and for everyone to enjoy.
Lasting legacy and inspiring things to come ...
