MD Gallery exhibits Contemporary Fine Art by both established and emerging artists, in solo and group shows. Established in 2017, the gallery has a strong focus on representing artists from the region. Themed group exhibitions showing an eclectic range of art disciplines are a favourite of the gallery owner and curator, Megan Dickinson: “We are a small gallery on a big mission to showcase an inspiring array of talent that resides in the North”.
Come and visit the gallery and enjoy the current show, we also have a well appointed stockroom. If our opening hours are a bit tricky for you simply make an appointment for a private viewing.
