We’re so honoured and thrilled to have been invited to work with Dartmoor National Park to create the collage celebrating the 75th anniversary of its official designation as a National Park.

'Haytor – A Dartmoor Icon' - by artist Glen Middleham - was created using archive materials from Dartmoor’s record libraries, bringing together layers of history, landscape and storytelling. Hidden throughout the artwork are wildlife, pixies, poetry and Dartmoor’s much-loved letterbox stamps.

Glen explains why Haytor became the focus of the piece: “I have vivid memories of family trips to Dartmoor as a child, and this particular view of Haytor has stayed with me ever since. To be invited to create this piece has been an absolute honour.”

The print is available in a limited edition of 75, with proceeds supporting the work of Dartmoor National Park Authority to help protect, conserve and celebrate this unique landscape and its cultural heritage.

Will Dracup, Dartmoor National Park Authority Chair, said: “We’re delighted to be working with a local business and such a talented artist on this celebratory piece of art, marking the 75th Anniversary of Dartmoor National Park’s designation.”

“The archival content included within the work is meticulous, and the print truly represents what makes Dartmoor so special.”

Prints can be ordered from The Jam Gallery on North Street, online at madebyjam.co.uk and at Dartmoor National Park Visitor Centres.

Thrilled to see our Barn Owl puzzle - created in partnership with Barn Owl Trust - featured in the Winter 2025 edition of Dartmoor Magazine, which is helping to fund the Trust’s continued conservation work. 🧩

The puzzle is available to buy from the Trust’s online shop, from our gallery in Ashburton, or online at madebyjam.co.uk.

We’ve loved hearing from everyone who’s completed the puzzle over the last few months - and the consensus seems to be that it’s definitely a challenge, but a fun one!

How it started. How it ended.

We’re so proud to have been able to work with the amazing team at the Barn Owl Trust to celebrate this incredible milestone and help raise vital funds to help them continue their hugely important conservation work.

Thanks to everyone who has already purchased a jigsaw puzzle or print - and for your kind words about the collage… your support is massively appreciated. ❤️

We celebrate 40 years of Barn Owl conservation! To mark the occasion, artist Glen Middleham (of Jam Contemporary Art) has created a stunning Barn Owl collage. It's available as a print and a jigsaw puzzle. The piece tells parts of our story, made from field notes, photos, and memories.

Glen’s journey began with a Barn Owl visit to his school 35 years ago, now his art helps protect Barn Owls for the future.

Order online or visit the Jam Contemporary Art Gallery in Ashburton. Every purchase supports the Trust's mission of conserving Barn Owls in the wild, and their environment.
