Art Galleries in Cornwall

As a haven for artists Cornwall has an abundance of art galleries exhibiting all things creative from intricate sculptures to life-sized masterpieces.

And in Cornwall small really is beautiful. As well as the Cornish leg of the world famous Tate Gallery in St Ives - which more than lives up to its city counterparts - Cornwall also boasts some lesser known treasures tucked away in the most unexpected of places just waiting to be pleasantly stumbled upon.

Make a visit in May during Open Studio time and you can see artists in the full throws of creativity working in anything from a former railway carriage to an old grammar school to the more orthodox barn-in-the-middle-of-nowhere.

Buy It

In pretty much any gallery there may lurk either something collectable (or just something that happens to catch your eye) but, if it's an investment you're after, try Truro's Lemon Street Gallery or the Belgrave or the New Millennium Gallery in St Ives. You can still pick up a piece by an artist guaranteed to appreciate over time, like Kurt Jackson, for example, or Jason Walker.
