Batley Art Gallery is a contemporary artspace which hosts a continual programme of exhibitions by amateur and professional artists. Situated on the first floor of the impressive Carnegie Library building, in the historic marketplace in central Batley, the gallery runs a popular open art exhibition and annual 'showcase' exhibitions by Dewsbury Arts Group, Batley Camera Club and Mosaic. We also offer opportunities for individual artists to show their work, and welcome applications from practising artists at all levels.
Exhibitions at Batley Art Gallery are managed by Creative Arts Hub, contact mark@creativeartshub.org.uk if you are interested in exhibiting or have any queries about the venue.
