Nature in Art in Gloucester (Gloucestershire) – Family Friendly Museum Award shortlist

Our growing collection is housed in a fine Georgian mansion dating from the mid 1700’s. We regularly change our displays and have a vibrant programme of temporary exhibitions supported by an unrivalled programme of artists in residence. International in scope, appeal and stature, Nature in Art is a must for all those interested in world-class art, nature and heritage.

They also have children’s activity days, and a special website for kids to discover more about art and nature: http://www.discoveryzone.org.uk/

The museum has twice been specially commended in the National Heritage Museum of the Year Awards. With a licensed coffee shop serving meals, plus gardens, free parking and a beautiful setting it’s a wonderful place to visit.

Nature in Art was shortlisted for Kids in Museums‘ Telegraph Family Friendly Museum Award in 2013. Here’s what the judges had to say:

A local undiscovered gem.
