Part-funded by the ACE covid fund and the Dedham Vale AONB, the design of this came out of Zoom workshops with a group including local residents and the Museum's associated artists.
The shape mimics the nearby meandering River Stour which Munnings loved and is still used today for painting workshops.
Made of local sustainable English oak with red marble spikes incorporated as a grudging nod to covid
