A not-for-profit enterprise run by artists for artists

The Gate is an exciting, flexible and affordable place for art - a great place to get your work seen (and sold). The Gate is available for hire by artists and craftspeople.

The Gate at 21 Westgate Street, Gloucester is a space with possibilities of use beyond the display of finished artworks (gallery) including storytelling, music, poetry, artist residencies and workshops. You can contact GCA about your ideas on contact@gloucestercontemporaryartists.art

 

Gloucester is changing -  with the landmark Forum development, the imminent opening of the prestigious Hotel Indigo, the creation of the University of Gloucester city campus in the beautiful 1930s Debenhams building and with the wealth of new homes and student accommodation the city centre is set for a rennaisance.

Booking the Gate in three easy steps

The Gate art space  in the centre of the university city of Gloucester is flexible and affordable.
