Lord Mayor welcomes Graysons' support for premier art event

28th June 2023

Lord Mayor, Councillor Colin Ross, was in the city's Botanical Gardens to hear about plans for Art in the Gardens, which celebrates its 20th anniversary in a few weeks' time.

He was joined by Peter Clark, managing partner of Graysons Solicitors, which returns as the event’s premier sponsor for the 5th year running, and renowned ballet dancer Tala Lee-Turton.

Art in the Gardens has grown to become one of the country’s largest outdoor art markets, with thousands of exhibits on display. It’s a chance to meet the artists and craft makers and explore the breathtaking Botanical Gardens.

The event returns on Saturday and Sunday, September 2nd and 3rd, with a preview evening on Friday, September 1st.

Many of the region’s best artists will be exhibiting and selling their work over the weekend once again.

The preview evening will also welcome the attendance of local ballet dancer Tala Lee-Turton, who performed in the Botanical Gardens last year. She will be promoting her forthcoming Sheffield Theatres show, parler femme.

Peter Clark, managing partner at Graysons, said:

“We’ve had the privilege of being involved in Art in the Gardens since 2019, and we’re looking forward to being present once again in September. It’s a wonderful celebration of the artistic and creative talent in the region.”

Graysons is also the sponsor of Sheffield Young Artists and regularly works with local artist Alan Pennington who will be joining the firm at Art in the Gardens.
