The Contemporary Art Society and Henry Moore Foundation have formed a partnership, generously supported by Cathy Wills, to donate contemporary sculpture to museums in the UK. The initial four-year scheme, started in 2018, supports Yorkshire as the UK centre of sculpture, with either The Hepworth Wakefield or Leeds Art Gallery receiving a major work by a living artist each year.
