We are an open, vibrant society providing a community hub for all artists and art loving public. Our beautiful gallery is centrally located and easily accessed. We regularly hold new exhibitions in the gallery. Workshops and Life Drawing Classes are held regularly in the gallery and, as with most of our activities, anyone (not just members) can join in. You can privately hire:

  • our gallery spaces for private art exhibitions, classes and workshops.
  • our venue as a creative backdrop for corporate team-building sessions, concerts, fashion parades, book launches, auctions, fundraising and birthdays or baby showers.

Everyone is welcome to come along to events at the gallery which include monthly artist talks and social gatherings, exhibition openings and other events. Visit our facebook page (rqasBRIS) for more information. Please note the Gallery has limited accessibility for some of our events, please contact us via phone or email for more information.
