What to do and see in Brighton, England: The Best Museums

May 22, 2022 Deane Carmody

Londoners have been traveing to Brighton for beach getaways ever since the railway arrived here in 1841. The pebbled beach, Brighton Pier's amusement arcade and the Royal Pavilion are the main sights, but you'll also find hundreds of pubs and clubs catering to an energetic crowd.

Opening out onto the beach next to Brighton pier it is a great to stop and just enjoy the art or purchase a piece that would look great in your home.The gallery is open to the public all year round, most days between 11.00am till 6.00pm.The gallery is in a converted Victorian fisherman's shop, built in the old brick arches lining the beach front and situated in the historic old town area of Brighton. These shops were formally used to mend nets and store boats etc and still retain their old character which compliments the art they currently house.

The artist owned gallery is located in the prestigious, historical heart of the Brighton Lanes area, a fitting situation for a space sympathetic to the art of story-telling.

Walking past yesterday evening and got chatting to the lady who owns this little shop. Very passionate about her work and turns out herself, her husband and her daughter all have various pieces of artwork on display. Took her time to talk us through the art and what materials were used for each piece. Definitely worth stopping off and having a look!
