After what we hope has been a joyful and relaxing Christmas season for all, we warmly greet you with wishes for a very happy, healthy and prosperous new year. Rested and refreshed, we drive forward into the hopeful horizons of 2026, excited for all that the next year will bring. Between an inspiring new selection of paintings and our ambitious plans for the gallery’s upcoming exhibitions, our spirits could not be higher to share our latest updates with you all.
As we brightly look forward to the year ahead, the team are hard at work behind the scenes finalising the details of the gallery’s ambitious 2026 exhibition programme. From the return of highly anticipated annual solo exhibitions of Sean Durkin and Yorkshire artist Clare Haley to new group shows that spotlight some of our most popular and collectible artists, we simply cannot wait to unveil all that we have in store. Dates and details about upcoming shows and events will continue to be revealed in due course, so do revisit our Exhibitions page and keep a close eye on our monthly newsletter for updates.
With the bustle of the Christmas season now behind us, we take a moment to pause and breathe deeply, finding moments of calm and centre within our collection. The recent weeks have seen new arrivals from Daniel Van der Putten, Colin Wilson, Tina Spratt, Michael John Ashcroft, ROI, Stephen Hawkins, Alex Hill, Raymond Campbell, Carl Whitfield, Jay Nottingham, Dianne Flynn and plein air painter Julian Mason. Ever growing and ever evolving, these latest additions bring new energy and voice to our outstanding selection of collectible fine art. Do take a look at our Recently Acquired page to view these, and any other new arrivals making their way to the gallery over the course of the month. You just never know when your next acquisition might present itself.
We hope you will enjoy our January Newsletter. As ever, we thank you for your patronage and look forward to welcoming you to the gallery soon.
