16th & 17th December
12 noon - 9pm
Copped Hall
Epping, Essex, CM16 5HS
For three days and three nights this Christmas time, the vast cavernous vaults of the historic and legendary ruined mansion Copped Hall in Epping Forest will be fully opened for the first major exhibition of contemporary art on site.
Curated by artist Alexis Soul-Gray and A Plan Projects founder Catherine Bagg, The Winter's Wayzgoose will feature exciting new works by 21 emerging and established artists. Fact and fiction will collide in this celebration of monument and regeneration. Each artist's work will explore an aspect of the hall's rich history, from the first performance of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream of 1594 in the grounds of the house to the disastrous fire one Sunday morning in 1917, which left the building devastated.
