The Big Harewood Garden Party

Bring your checked blankets and wicker baskets – we’re having a Big Garden Party weekend!

As part of Leeds 2023, world-renowned artists Lucy & Jorge Orta are hosting a special collaborative meal with community groups on Harewood’s Terrace, and we invite everyone to get involved with a giant garden party in the grounds.

Eat, drink and come together as part of the Harewood community, enjoying special activities, pop-up street food and live entertainment as we appreciate the way that food crosses divides.

70×7 THE MEAL: Lucy & Jorge Orta

With Leeds 2023, Lucy & Jorge Orta create a participative artwork on the Terrace where table-setting becomes a discursive platform for diverse communities, across cultures and continents. This event is by invitation for the local community groups involved in the project. All visitors can find out more in the accompanying exhibition Below Stairs, from Sat 15 Jul–Sun 8 Oct.

We are grateful for the support from Leeds2023 and the National Heritage Lottery Fund for this project.
