Watts Chapel Visits and Workshops

An introductory talk to the visually stimulating interior and exterior of the Watts Cemetery Chapel, provides an unique opportunity to research first hand the designs and symbols created by Mary Watts. Both the interior and exterior decoration of the Chapel allows for research and inspiration for making 3D art work and 2D design ideas. The Cemetery also has many grave stones in the arts and crafts style as well as a covered memorial area near to the grave of G F and Mary Watts.
