Architectural glass artist and designer Sasha Ward became the first artist in residence at Kelmscott Manor, the Cotswold retreat of William Morris and his family, in 2014.

This film by R&A Collaborations looks at Sasha's experiences while being Artist in Residence at Kelmscott Manor, and how she has found inspiration there after exploring the house and grounds over several months, running workshops and creating new designs. It also features Property Manger Sarah Parker, who shares her thoughts about having an artist in residence for the first time and how it has attracted a new audience to the Manor.

Kelmscott Manor is the former Cotswold retreat of William Morris, his family and his friends. It is owned by the Society of Antiquaries of London (registered charity no. 207230), and is a historic house and museum open to the public between April and October each year.
