Dockside Gallery has an interesting past - former Burgon’s barbers, a family business spanning 3 generations. Having the gallery bang in the middle of England and Scotland made life easier for artists delivering work.
Dockside Gallery, is an ever-changing exhibition offering a wide range of artworks from established and emerging artists from across the UK and abroad.
Accessible and imaginative art and craft works, including original paintings, prints, ceramics, hand-crafted jewellery, and cards.
All the artists are hand-chosen from across the UK, as well as abroad, for the quality and originality of their work, offering visitors a treat for the senses – a fascinating mix of colour, texture, imagery and ideal for lovers of great art. The gallery staff will always try to help find the right individual piece of work for customers from an extensive range and offer a worldwide delivery service. Affordability is key and, supported by the ‘Own Art’ purchase scheme, the aim is to exhibit contemporary artists and makers’ works that are exciting, collectable, and available to all.
