New Forest Marque Inspired at Hampshire Open Studios

The New Forest Marque is synonymous with the finest locally produced food and drink, but did you know that more recently a new category of the Marque was established to include artists and craftspeople called New Forest Marque Inspired?

The ‘Inspired’ community includes vibrant creatives who live, sell in and are inspired by the beauty of the New Forest. This August and September, they will be presenting their paintings, ceramics, lino prints, map art, wildlife art, photography, glass and jewellery in a showcase as part of Hampshire Open Studios at the New Forest Heritage Centre in Lyndhurst. This curated exhibition will bring together the best of New Forest talent, endorsing the New Forest Marque ethos of supporting small local businesses and thus the economy of our special New Forest landscape.

• When? 16 August – 14 September 2025
• Where? New Forest Heritage Centre, Main Car Park, Lyndhurst, SO43 7NY
• Free entry (donation optional)

Look out for a Hampshire Open Studios brochure in local shops, libraries and information centres.
