New Wakefield gallery to open in May
A major new art gallery currently being developed in Wakefield - The Hepworth Wakefield - is scheduled to open its doors to the public on 21 May.
Wakefield Council said the launch of the David Chipperfield Architects-designed waterfront attraction would provide a milestone in the regeneration of the area. Laing O'Rourke is building the new gallery, which will feature an auditorium, learning areas and a garden alongside displays of historic and modern art.
Wakefield Council chief executive Joanne Rooney said: "The Hepworth Wakefield is going to be a major attraction, both for the district's residents and for visitors to the region."
