Jackson Foundation (Gallery)

The Jackson Foundation is a unique, ambitious, multi-award winning, carbon-negative art-space celebrating the relationship between art and the natural world.

Founded by internationally renowned artist Kurt Jackson, the Foundation is housed within a massive ex-industrial building in the centre of the thriving former mining town of St Just-in-Penwith, and hosts an annual programme of quality contemporary exhibitions working in partnership with a variety of environmental and non-profit organisations.

The Jackson Foundation aims to provide a space, open to one and all, to reflect on our symbiotic relationship with the natural world, and the rewards to be found by taking a step back and looking around; to see the world through an artist’s eyes.

The gallery welcomes school visits as well as offering tailored workshops in partnership with their experienced education officer. They centre around three key themes – art, environmental science and the written word. These cross-curricular sessions link the work of world-renowned contemporary artist Kurt Jackson with an array of objectives.

Workshops are 2 hours for up to 30 students. All materials are supplied.

£150 (incl. VAT)/2 hour session
