Another 30 years: A Growing Collection

It is 30 years since the original founding of Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft, and the museum is celebrating this anniversary with a new exhibition ‘Another 30 years: A Growing Collection’. The exhibition reflects the museum’s ambition to grow the collection’s national and international importance, displaying works gifted and lent to the museum, recent purchases to the permanent collection, and bequests promised in years to come. Key pieces shown include a Charles Knight watercolour of Pyecombe Forge, relief carved works by Edgar Holloway and George Maxwell, a drawing by David Jones (believed to be of Eric Gill’s daughter, Petra), exquisite Edward Johnston calligraphy, and drawings by John Vernon Lord. The exhibition also highlights the current opportunity to donate toa beautiful Eric Gill relief carved plaque by Eric Gill for the museum’s permanent collection.
