The Bath Society of Botanical Artists was invited by Lord Kerry in 2024 to illustrate plants from the Bowood collection for an exhibition in the Garden Studio, located within the Walled Garden in 2026. Entitled The Lifecycle of Plants, the exhibition will feature paintings of plants from the Bowood Gardens and Arboretum. The Bath Society of Botanical Artists is a thriving, friendly, society with about forty members. Their aim is to promote an interest in botanical art and develop their skills in all forms of botanical illustration.
