gallery closing down
We are devastated that our landlord, Borde Hill, has given us notice to vacate in order to turn the Gallery building into office space for its staff.
So, after 15 years, our doors will sadly close for the final time on Saturday 15 April (open 11.30 am – 5 pm), when we are inviting everyone to come and say farewell to our little gem of a gallery!
Summer at the Gallery
The Gallery is full of the vibrant colours of summer, bursting with work from exciting new artists and from our regular artists too. As well as the stunning art, you’ll also find a treasure trove of unique gifts (from £5), toys and cards, making us the perfect place to find that perfect present! Jill & Sam offer you a warm welcome in a lovely, relaxed environment – and are on hand with help if you need it!
Annual Art Sale
After our annual spring clean and redecoration, we will re-open at 11.30 on Saturday 19 February for our Annual Art Sale.
This is a great opportunity for you to pick up fabulous artwork at bargain prices after our artists and makers have cleared out their studios ready for the start of the new year!
Sparkle Saturday & Sunday at The Gallery
Jeremy’s Christmas Market at Borde Hill
Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th December
10 am – 5 pm
As part of the Christmas Market, the Gallery will be offering a warm welcome to visitors with a glass of Prosecco and a mince pie! Come and enjoy a spot of festive shopping from our vast and ever-changing array of original Christmas present ideas – everything from affordable local art to decorations, cards, stocking fillers and toys.
Our well-known neighbour and restaurateur, Jeremy Ashpool, has selected a variety of stalls to showcase local food and drink produce, plus street food traders for snacks and lunches on the go!
If the weather is good, Borde Hill Garden will be open for winter walks, as well as its shop and marquee for other gifts.
Entry to the Christmas Market is FREE. Pre-booking is not required.
Our Alternative Black Friday/Cyber Saturday!
Friday 26th & Saturday 27th November
11.30 am – 4 pm
Come and enjoy the feelgood factor of knowing that any Gallery purchases on the Black Friday/Cyber Saturday weekend will be benefitting our local community!
We will be donating 10% of Gallery takings on both days to our vital local Foodbanks to help tackle continuing food poverty and hunger in our area.
What could be better than getting some of the Christmas presents on your list ticked off and at the same time, helping us to help others?
Christmas Shopping Tuesdays!
Make Christmas Shopping less of a chore with freshly brewed coffee, or tea, and mince pies every Tuesday until Christmas.
With the addition of seasonal extras such as stocking fillers, toys, Christmas decorations and cards, we’re sure you’ll find something for everyone on your list, whatever your budget!
All-day Macmillan Coffee ‘Morning’, Saturday 16th October, 11.30am – 4pm
Please come and join us for delicious homemade cakes, coffee and tea plus other fundraising goodies, all in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support!
This will also be the last chance to view the auction lots before our Online Macmillan Auction ends.

Autumn at the Gallery
We have swept a brush of autumnal colour over the entire Gallery to welcome the new season. Come and feast your eyes on our colourful harvest of new work, including some by new artists!
Spring into Summer!
15 June 2021 – 09 September 2021
As we all step out again and enjoy the promise of summer and the return of our much-missed freedoms, our ever-changing displays celebrate creativity in all its forms thanks to our regular artists and some new talent too!
