New Ashgate Gallery was originally established in the late 1950s. It has been located in the centre of the Farnham Craft Town in a seventeenth century listed building in Waggon Yard since the 1970s. During the years, the gallery has administered the profits from craft and art sales to create prizes and scholarships, and for the purchase of artworks for local and national museums. It was one of the first provincial galleries to show artists with an international reputation as well as supporting local talent. Today, New Ashgate Gallery provides an unparalleled resource for Farnham, Surrey and beyond. It is the destination for viewing and buying the best of affordable contemporary art and craft by established and emerging artists and makers. The Gallery curates an exciting programme of exhibitions and is dedicated to champion the best contemporary art and craft in the market place. As a not-for-profit charity, it also fosters emerging artists and makers through mentoring and exhibitions.
