🗓️ Saturday 7th – Sunday 8th September 2024
Discover Dunshay Manor’s Arts & Crafts history as it opens as part of this year’s Heritage Open Days.
Tucked away in the countryside just outside Corfe Castle, the historic home was restored and refurbished in the Arts & Crafts style in the 1900s by local architect Philip Sturdy.
Later, it became the home of renowned sculptor Mary Spencer Watson (1913 – 2006).
If you come along on Saturday 7th September between 11am – 2pm there will be a drop-in life drawing workshop in Mary’s former art studio.
