SUMMARY:Wiltshire and the World: John Aubrey and the Quest for Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:John Aubrey was born in the small hamlet of Easton Piercy\, near Kington St Michael. Four hundred years later\, this exhibition celebrates the life and work of this extraordinary individual. \nWhen Aubrey was born in 1626\, it seemed that life would never change. But when he was just sixteen\, the English Civil War broke out\, and things changed rapidly. As old certainties unravelled\, space was created for an explosion of new ideas. Not all of this change was positive\, however. Advances in some areas were met with destruction in others. \nThroughout his life\, Aubrey was on a quest for knowledge. He wanted to learn everything he could. He grew up in Wiltshire\, but his vision was global. What he observed in the local countryside\, its people and places\, he expanded into a wider\, interconnected view of the world. From the ancient monuments of prehistoric peoples to contemporary ballads sung in the streets\, nothing escaped his notice. Seeing and doing things for himself\, rather than relying on what had been done before\, was central to his understanding. \nWhen Aubrey could not gain first-hand experience\, he sought out those who could. He consulted and collaborated with a wide range of people. He was not concerned with their background; instead\, he proudly credited and celebrated the knowledge and experiences they held. \nAubrey’s insatiable thirst for knowledge left an extraordinary legacy. When he saw historically important places and objects being destroyed\, he recorded them before it was too late. He gathered the unfiltered life stories of both the important and the not so important people of his time. He also looked to the future\, with plans to create an environment in which science and learning could flourish in the Wiltshire countryside. \nThis exhibition brings original manuscripts\, paintings and books back to Wiltshire and the area Aubrey knew for the first time since his death in 1697. Through them\, we can witness John Aubrey’s quest for knowledge and be inspired to begin our own. \nThe exhibition forms part of the Chippenham – Our History project.

SUMMARY:Homes & Gardens Watercolour Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Take a break from the everyday and enjoy painting cosy homes and beautiful gardens in watercolour. In this relaxed\, therapeutic workshop\, you’ll have the freedom to paint a scene that combines buildings and nature — whether that’s a charming house\, a garden view\, or a favourite place where the two meet. \nYou might choose to paint cottages\, townhouses\, or garden buildings alongside flowers\, leafy borders\, winding paths\, fences\, pots\, benches\, and sun-dappled trees. Whether it’s your own home or garden\, a place you love to visit\, or a scene from your imagination\, you’ll be gently guided to create a painting that captures the mood and character of that space. \nWe’ll explore easy\, approachable watercolour techniques for buildings\, foliage\, flowers\, and textures\, with supportive guidance on composition\, colour\, and capturing light. You’re welcome to work in a loose\, expressive way or take a more detailed approach — this workshop is about finding what feels right for you. \nThis session is beginner-friendly and low-pressure\, designed to encourage enjoyment and experimentation rather than technical perfection. By the end of the workshop\, you’ll have created your own watercolour painting to frame\, gift\, or keep as a personal memento\, along with an Introduction to Watercolour booklet to help you continue painting at home. \nWe’ll have exclusive use of The Waverley’s spacious main upstairs room\, and a complimentary drink of your choice is included in your ticket. \nAll materials are provided (or feel free to bring your own favourites). No prior experience is needed — just curiosity\, a love of homes and gardens\, and a willingness to have a go!
