After nearly 75 years at its current location, Wakefield Art Gallery closed to the public on Sunday 29 March 2009.

The collections will now be prepared for their move to the new Hepworth gallery which opens in 2011 

The Hepworth Wakefield

The Hepworth, Wakefield is an exciting and vibrant new gallery on Wakefield's historic waterfront, which will replace Wakefield's current Art Gallery in 2011. It will feature the unique collection of Barbara Hepworth's original plaster sculptures, Wakefield's art collections and a range of inspiring and creative activities.
