Graham Burgess, the chair of Whitchurch Arts, will be creating a garden for the show along with Whitchurch Arts member Stephen Miller and other local artists Paul Harvey and Shelley Gibb.

The garden is one of several that depict the life of King Henry VIII, who ascended to the throne 500 years ago this year.  Graham’s garden is all about Katherine of Arragon.
