    Festive Four - Sophie Harding and Hugh Perry choose their choice pieces
    In the lead up to the festive season, we’re asking some of our artists and makers to choose their ‘Festive Four,’ four pieces from the gallery that they would love to see under their tree or to gift to their nearest and dearest. This week, artist Sophie Harding and ceramicist Hugh Perry share their choices.
  • Open for business!

    From Monday, 15th June we're officially able to open, and while this is very exciting - I am very mindful that COVID has not gone away. We've been relatively fortunate here in Cornwall and we want it to stay that way. To make things as safe as possible for you we're taking this very gradually and will be opening by appointment only for the next couple of weeks. 
  • Full Bloom

    Full Bloom

    Full Bloom is the second of our spring exhibitions at the Byre Gallery and we’re bringing it to you in a slightly abbreviated form - but still bursting with spring colour and brightness, and of course some highly desirable art...

  • Virtually Open

    Virtually Open
    Sadly we're not able to open the gallery doors as we hoped - what has to come first now is that we all listen and act on guidance - stay at home and look after ourselves. You can enjoy 'Postcards from the Edge,' virtually though - take a look at the exhibitions page and click through from there.
  • Summer is here...

    Summer is here...
    ... it feels rather wonderfully like summer has been here for months now, and finally the gallery is catching up!  We have two summer exhibitions this year - A Drop in the Ocean from 14th July until 12th August and then Hidden Depths from 15th August. As ever there are lots of wonderfully pieces from both new and regular artists and makers and this year I've collected some of them in a brochure - to take a look at the pdf version, please click on the link below the cover image.  If you'd like to see a 'real' version, please get in touch.
  • Easter at The Byre

    Easter at The Byre
    Taste, our new exhibition for spring is now open - and we're open all Easter weekend.  The gallery is full of stunning pieces to bring spring freshness into your life. Jill Hudson's paintings and Sarah Morris' woodcut prints sing from the walls with their vibrant colours; and glass from Cat Mackenzie and Ruth Shelley seem to perfectly capture the hues of early spring.
