Bluebell iii Jackie Morris

The Lost Words / Geiriau Diflanedig

Sunday 2 July until Spring 2024
This enchanting exhibition combines the creative talents of artist Jackie Morris and writer Robert Macfarlane to celebrate the relationship between language and the living world, and nature’s power to spark the imagination.
The exhibition is based on The Lost Words, the Sunday Times bestselling book, published in 2017. The Lost Words began as a response to the removal of the names of plants and animals from children’s dictionaries due to their lack of use in everyday life.
A treat for the eyes, mind and soul, this exhibition aims to reconnect adults and children to the natural world using the magic of words and art.
For the very first time, this exhibition will also be showcasing ‘Geiriau Diflanedig’, a Welsh language version of the book, written by Welsh poet, Mererid Hopwood.

A touring exhibition organised by Compton Verney, with Hamish Hamilton and Penguin Books

The Tower - Sarah Earl

Friday 11 August – Sunday 24 September
Sarah creates "joyful and magical" brightly coloured paintings inspired by the Pembrokeshire landscape. She finds this wonderfully unique county is full of small but essential detail: little white-washed cottages, wind-bent trees, vivid wild flowers, birds and animals. Her paintings are very personal interpretations of the Pembrokeshire she sees everyday - some are real places, some imagined.

Oystercatcher Final

St Davids Room - Birds of Pembrokeshire by Meg Phillips

Thursday 24 August – Monday 2 October
An exhibition of watercolour paintings and limited edition prints of the birds from the coast and land of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.  Meg holds a strong connection to Pembrokeshire’s coastline and the surrounding diverse landscapes and many of her memories involve the birds of Pembrokeshire. Birds can evoke nostalgia and connect us to places; from the gannets diving into St Bride’s Bay, red kites soaring above moorland or the guillemots and razorbills nesting on Ramsey Island; birds are synonymous with the National Park. This collection of watercolour paintings captures the beauty and intricate details of these amazing birds that we so rarely get to see up close.
