VISIT HAREWOOD HOUSE
While attending the rally, members will have full access to Harewood House and its stunning grounds. As an added part of the event, Harewood has an extraordinary exhibition celebrating the 250th anniversaries of JMW Turner (1775-1851) and Jane Austen (1775-1817).
For the first time, the works of these two legendary artistic figures will be brought together, exploring the intersecting worlds of artist and author. The exhibition showcases Turner’s famous paintings of Harewood alongside first edition copy of Sense and Sensibility, revealing their shared vision of the British country house and its landscape.
Rarely seen artefacts, period costumes, paintings, watercolours, and creative writing will bring this fascinating era to life. This exhibition, curated in collaboration with The Centre for Eighteenth Century Studies at the University of York, is a must-see for history and literature enthusiasts alike while visiting the event.
