The Prince Albert Gallery is in Seven Arches, the gracious Victorian building opposite the Museum.  This unique gallery, was conceived some years ago by local artists who needed a venue to show their work.  During a meeting held early in 2002, six people elected to create the space and run the gallery and on 10 May of that year the first exhibition was opened. Since then there have been a variety of exhibitions by artists well known both locally and country-wide, such as Alf Gundersen, David Goldblatt, Sally Arnold, Christine Thomas, Anne Kerr and her mother Erica Berry, installation artist Jo O'Connor, Richard John Forbes, and painter, Ben Coutouvidis.

The Quiet Revolution

--------------------------------------------------

We hoped the gallery could provide an opportunity for people to enjoy and appreciate a variety of art and also encourage those with creative abilities to show their work. The July 2003 exhibition `30x40?` (which describes the size of the canvas people used) achieved this aim. All works were unsigned hence the question mark in the title.  

Held to commemorate our first anniversary the show was a massive success with over 40 contributors and 29 paintings that sold. Subsequent `30x40?`exhibitions have proved equally popular and more artists and patrons join the fun of the silent auction at the opening of the exhibition each year.  

Of the original group of six running the gallery, one remains, Brent Phillips-White. A new member, Mary Anne Botha has joined. 

The spirit and enthusiasm of the founding members, Kevin Hough, Trudy Brain, JP Meyer, Sheila Coutouvidis and Stephen Allwright remain with us and they continue to contribute their art and interest.

The gallery has space which can be booked for exhibitions

please contact us for details.
