Save The Artist’s Garden!
In the heart of London stands a bold, historic project: The Artist’s Garden — the world’s first and only public sculpture garden dedicated to the work of women artists.
Today it is at risk.
Since opening in 2021, it has welcomed over 100,000 visitors every year for free, every day. A free, open, space where the brilliance of women is not hidden, but celebrated at scale — a place where artists, young people and communities come together to experience what women can achieve, collectively, in public space.
But on today, The Artist’s Garden faces eviction. Places for London, TfL’s commercial property arm is granting a lease to a private developer, putting this public space — protected by its own legislation passed in 1864 and reinforced in 1919 — in danger of being lost.
