We have access to over 50,000 prints worldwide!In 2011 we celebrated 120 years since Lovelys was first established in 1891 which is still run by the family four generations later.In May 2011 Lovelys launched a new contemporary exhibition gallery - "Edge", upstairs in our gallery in Northdown Road, Cliftonville. This creates a new 'edge' to Lovelys, working alongside our continuing commitment to showcasing traditional and contemporary art.Edge will offer a continually changing collection of diverse artwork from Thanet and East Kent based professional artists who are on the periphery of national and international recognition. Edge will also focus attention on the exhibitors creative intentions, encouraging a thought provoking experience.

We visited here whilst staying in the area late last year. Rather stumbled upon it whilst exploring the town. Seemed a bit quiet was unsure if it were even open at first. However no sooner had we reached the desk and we were greeted warmly. I’m not sure if it’s a regular occurrence but we were assisted almost the entire way round, by a chap with immense friendliness and enthusiasm for the place. Certainly a highlight.

Pie factory it is not or who ate all the pies? No doubt was a pie place once. From pies to pictures. It's an art gallery. Good one at that. There are classic painters and sculptures. Also a great opportunity for new artists to display their creations. Toilets and cafe and lots of car parking. Staff are friendly and welcoming and knowledgeable.
