The Story of Seaglass Gallery
​
Seaglass Gallery opened its doors for the first time in summer 2021. In the way that seaglass becomes a thing of beauty as time passes, we had a seed of an idea which grew into a treasure that we now share with you. What was, until about twenty years ago, the village newsagents has once again welcomed the community through the doors- this time to celebrate creativity and art. Seaglass Gallery, our independent family business, is a calm and restful space full of beautiful art that inspire and bring joy. We exhibit and sell the work of west-country artists and run art workshops. Many of the Seaglass artists are award winning and have exhibited nationally.
Charlotte, who has previously taught for many years, runs the Seaglass Gallery. When Seaglass is closed she focuses on her own art- both painting and print-making. She is inspired by the natural world, walking and her love of river and sea swims through all the seasons.
Much of Seaglass's artwork is linked to Lympstone's beautiful Exe estuary location - a place that is much loved by us. We recognise the importance of both art and nature to wellbeing and it is this that shapes the workshops we run. Workshops are run either by Charlotte and other accomplished artists, all bringing their unique skills and passion for what they do.
We are open as a gallery from 10-4 on a Friday and Saturday. A warm welcome awaits you in our calm and creative space.
