What
we do

What we do at Compton Verney

A world class art space in a park.
A place to discover art, explore nature and spark creativity.

Compton Verney is a unique blend of gallery, landscape and experience — set in a stunning Robert Adam mansion surrounded by a Capability Brown-designed park in the heart of Warwickshire.

Here, you’ll find:

  • Six permanent art collections
  • Exciting exhibitions and installations
  • A vibrant sculpture park
  • Creative workshops and family-friendly events
  • 120 acres of meadows, woodland, and wild spaces to roam

More Than a Beautiful Place

But we’re more than a beautiful place.

We’re a charity dedicated to connecting people with art, nature and creativity — because we believe these things have the power to transform lives. Whether it’s a child’s first gallery visit, a moment of calm in nature, or an encounter with a new idea, we’re here to offer meaningful experiences for all.

 

What Makes Us Different

We do things differently. Everything we do is guided by our values:

  • Collaborative – we work with artists, partners and communities
  • Inclusive – everyone is welcome here
  • Bold – we take creative risks and ask questions
  • Sustainable – we care for our environment and look to the future
  • Fun – joy is at the heart of what we offer

A Place for Regeneration

Our ambition is to become a model place of regeneration through art — helping the world to grow, renew and thrive. Culturally. Emotionally. Environmentally.

So whether you’re looking for a family day out, a moment of inspiration, or simply a walk in a beautiful landscape, Compton Verney is here to surprise and delight you.
