The size of the exhibition space is shown below:

Dimensions on the image show a wall of approximately 2.58 metres, a wall of approximately 6.47 metres and a wall of approximately 9.15 meters.

Following a successful bid to Postcode Local Trust, we have obtained funding to develop a small sensory garden on the back terrace of the Library.

We invite the community to join us and enjoy a season of learning how to grow herbs and vegetables using organic methods. We meet weekly on Tuesday afternoons 2:00pm to 3:30pm.

If you would like to be involved with designing this garden, please contact Malvern Library.
