About Newlyn Art Gallery

Occupying a handsome Arts and Crafts building at the heart of one of Britain's oldest fishing communities, Newlyn Art Gallery shows ambitious contemporary exhibitions alongside work rooted in the West Cornish tradition. The town itself gave its name to the celebrated Newlyn School of artists who settled here in the 1880s, drawn by the quality of the Atlantic light.
