Description

Tate are embarking on a £3m refurbishment of grade 2 listed building known as the Palais de Danse (or Palais) in St Ives Cornwall. The building has had a rich history and been an important venue in the town stretching back to the 1800s having been a naval college, a cinema, a dancehall and latterly the second studio of the artist Barbara Hepworth. The building has lain empty since the artists death in the 1970s and a full refurbishment is needed to bring the building back into useful life. The Tate run the adjacent Barbara Hepworth Museum and Garden and the Palais will extend visitors understanding of Hepworth's work by allowing access into the spaces where she created some of her most iconic larger scaled work.
