A fantastic place to visit and see some amazing pieces of art, it was so good we perused the exhibits several times during our visit.nI'd recommend visiting here

Current impressionism exhibition is thoroughly excellent, plenty of big name pieces. The Hepworth sculpture collection is truly spectacular too though. Really interesting to see the behind the scenes making of elements too.

It is a very cool space set on the River Calder. Celebrating the work of Babara Hepworth. It has a lovely cafe and interesting shop with themed goods. Highly recommend a good couple of hours in there.

Art is wank. Literally could make better art if I closed my eyes and swiped a paintbrush randomly. They also promote self-harm, as there is a showcase of mastectomy scars. Me and my mum came here specifically to laugh at the art and boy did they deliver. In terms of comedy, 10/10. In terms of actual skill, about a 2/10. In conclusion, the art is wank.

The gallery is lovely, and the building has interesting architecture. This season, they have great exhibitions. My favourite was Weerhoud, by Igshaan Adams, I really enjoyed it.
