spats Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Had an amazing day today at The Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Can highly recommend the exhibition of Yinka Shonibare MBE . It was the most astonishing collection of exquisite artwork I have ever seen. Here is the website link with details.... http://www.ysp.co.uk/exhibitions/yinka-shonibare-mbe-fabric-ation But honestly, a computer does not do his work justice. You really need to be up close to appreciate the intricate detailing in each of his pieces. £7.50 to park all day, no charge for entry to any of the exhibits or the beautiful extensive grounds. Lovely cafe to have some lunch or you can take a picnic. The exhibit is there until September. We will be going back as I cant wait to see it again! Tip...pay for the parking as soon as you get there. The machines are very slow & the queues to use them get very long later in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalman Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Even better value if you park in the lay-by just off the roundabout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
