Having been to visit Petworth House and Park, we decided to explore the town. Off-street parking is easy but only for an hour, so you have to be smartish. Lombard Street is a pleasant pedestrianised street, contrasting with other streets around which are traffic-congested and Kevin House is one of several art, design and antique galleries to be explored in Petworth, with a good range of artists and variety of work. Don't miss it!!

We had been visiting Petworth House and Park and decided to explore the town, which we are glad that we did. It is a treasure trove of outlets selling antiques, art and designer items, from the top exclusive end to the more popular lower price range. Off street parking is available for an hour, so you have to be quick exploring the different shops, but we had no problem finding parking. Forest Gallery is on the pedestrianised Lombard Street which runs from Market Square up to the Parish Church and has an excellent range of artists in a variety of media, with an enticing shop window, at prices to suit all budgets. Well worth exploring...

It's the real deal, not just glass art on the walls and in the gallery, but you can see it being made! They run glass courses and I saw some of the windows for the Worthing Pier initiative being made. There is a separate room upstairs for Ashes in Art, which is fascinating with cremation ashes to make memorial glass art and jewellery. Very impressed and diverse range of art in a beautiful building.

Chichester is indeed fortunate to have the Pallant House Galley which is home to one of the best collections of 20th century British art, housed in the early 18th century Pallant House in Chichester was extended with a new modern extension in 2006. You can tell how much I value visiting the Gallery by the fact that I drove for an hour and a half from London to see both the works on show from the permanent collection and also the current special exhibitions. Among the different special exhibitions across the Gallery, the 'stand-out' exhibition has to be 'Barnett Freedman: Designs for Modern Britain', exploring the work of Barnett Freedman who moved from painting to become one of the most sought-after British commercial designers in the mid-20th century. He is relatively unknown, but his work was seen by many people at the time on posters, in books and in art. He was an amazing artist of his age. The Gallery also has an excellent bookshop and a cafe which appeared to be very popular for morning coffee and for lunch, for which bookings were advised, and where seating spills out into the courtyard that joins the historic building and the new extension together. The only downside for me, which is nothing to do with the Gallery, was the city car park nearby. Paying for parking was slow and tedious and I had to give up at one point and start again.
