the space
The gallery is set across two rooms: a calm exhibition space and a bright shop room, each designed to encourage unhurried looking.
Exhibitions change regularly and are shaped by the seasons, the landscape, and the rhythms of the year. Alongside them, the shop brings together a thoughtful, evolving selection of work by artists and makers from across the UK.
There are places to sit, read, and rest — this is not a space to rush through.

before you travel
If you’re hoping to see work by a particular artist or maker, it’s always worth getting in touch before making a long journey. Our displays change regularly and not everything is always on show.
Masham
Masham is a beautiful small ancient market town. Nestled in the lower reaches of Wensleydale by the river Ure Masham is idylically located. The town has a very creative history, Turner visited here and nearby Hackfall, Royal Academicians George Cuitt and Julius Caesar Ibbetson lived here as well as other writers, poets and musicians. Today Masham still has a very friendly welcoming creative community with three galleries, a glassblowers, an active arts programme at the town hall and many musicians artists and craftspeople as part of the community. Maybe it's the beer - although the town has just 1000 souls two breweries (Theakstons and Black Sheep thrive here) as do four pubs. Masham does events well - key highlights of the year are the Sheep Fair and the Steam Rally. With some great walks, interesting places to shop, eat and relax we think there's a fair bet you'll love it here. Check out visit Masham for more details and the fabulous dales discoveries for independent insiders info about the rest of the dales.
