The Art House brings artists, communities and curious minds together through a year-round programme of free exhibitions, events, workshops, and professional development opportunities.
Explore our free public gallery, enjoy a coffee, browse our shop, or join one of our many free events and activities. If you’re feeling creative, our Print Studio, Ceramics Studio and Darkroom offer opportunities to learn, experiment and make.
We’re also home to artist studios, and offer residencies and professional development opportunities, supporting a thriving community of local and visiting creatives – sign up to our mailing list to hear about upcoming opportunities!
We believe that creative spaces thrive when they’re open, inclusive, and welcoming to all. That’s why we’re here – to support curiosity, celebrate diverse voices, and help make creativity accessible to everyone.
Our Vision
Our Vision, Values and Mission, have been co-created by TAH Team. These are a result of reflection, dialogue, and collaboration across every department. They’re a shared expression of purpose, rooted in lived experience, guided by our charitable aims, and shaped by the voices of the people who make TAH what it is.
