Beau McCall: Divas and the Blues exhibition blend photo-collages on metal, buttons, music, art, and dance, drawing on McCall's luminous dye-sublimation aluminum works inspired by divas, blues icons like Billie Holiday, and his 1970s–1990s punk-drag roots in queer scenes.

John Rhoden
Sculpture Garden
Permanant
Nestled within the serene grounds of Hammonds House Museum, the John Rhoden Sculpture Garden stands as our first permanent outdoor installation. It features ten masterful bronze and wooden sculptures by the visionary artist John Rhoden. These works weave together African, Caribbean, and diasporic traditions, inviting quiet reflection on form, heritage, and human expression amid the historic charm of our Victorian home.
