Welcome to Queen Street Gallery's website.
We specialise in contemporary Fine Art and craft, and hold changing monthly exhibitions throughout the year. Our gallery is located in the historic market town of Neath, South Wales.
Since opening in 2018, the gallery has been dedicated to showcasing and supporting a diverse range of artwork by both established and emerging artists.
We have a particular love of contemporary Welsh artists, and we will always have a varied selection of their art on show.
Ranging from traditional to modern, figurative to abstract, each exhibition is complemented by a selection of individual ceramics and sculpture pieces.
In 2023, we acquired a newly renovated space at Canterbury Lofts, which is quickly becoming recognised as a must-visit destination
for art lovers.
Opening Hours:
Tuesday to Saturday - 10am to 4pm
Other times - by appointment
