With a very limited permanent collection, this outpost of the Tate hosts exhibitions of modern art, sometimes with a Cornish theme. The coffee shop is excellent and has a wonderful view
This is the perfect place to see and learn more about contemporary Cornish art. The collection boasts a number of Alfred Wallis's works, and those of other influential artists right up to the present day. Your ticket also allows you in to the Barbara Hepworth gallery, a short walk through the narrow streets of St Ives. The gallery is on the site of her workshop, which looks exactly as though she has popped out to the shops for a few minutes, and includes a number of her iconic works in the beautiful garden overlooking the church and the town. Not to be missed.
