You can learn new skills and make new friends on a huge range of courses and workshops at Quay Arts. It’s never too late (or too early) to start creating and making.

Two galleries give you the chance to discover the diversity of Island talent and established international artists on show at Quay Arts. On the first floor, the Clayden Gallery is an excellent space to see and buy work from local artists as well as work by schools, colleges and collectives, exploring a limitless range of themes and ideas.

Major exhibitions are held in the West Gallery. This spectacular space never fails to delight, challenge and surprise. Recent shows include Turner Prize winner Martin Creed and artists in residence at Jubilee Stores. Click here to see their upcoming exhibitions.
