Artistic Hub of 20th Century
Explore the historic home of the Bloomsbury group, where art and ideas merged. Discover the unique farmhouse that became a living work of art.
Are you curious about the homes of famous artists and writers? The house in question is Charleston, a farmhouse in Lewes, which was once the residence of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, two prominent figures of the 20th century art scene.
What will you see when you visit this house? You will see the result of Bell and Grant's creative endeavour, as they painted every surface of the farmhouse, turning it into a living, breathing work of art.
Who were the people behind this unique project? The house was home to Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant, and David Garnett, who were part of a larger group of radical artists, writers, and thinkers known as the Bloomsbury group.
How can you experience this historic house for yourself? The event takes place on Sunday, 7 March 2027, at Charleston in Lewes, and tickets are with the button beside the article.
