The Box Gallery : A Celebration of Creativity
At The Box Gallery, we are dedicated to creating dynamic and engaging experiences through art. Our mission is to showcase both emerging and established artists from diverse backgrounds, with a focus on those who push the boundaries of traditional art forms. Whether featuring local talent, national stars, or international names, our exhibitions highlight artists who are well-exhibited, award-winning, and continually rising in profile.
We aim to bring art to Portsmouth that not only inspires and brings joy but also offers a valuable investment opportunity. Our collection spans a wide range of mediums, including paintings, sculptures, drawings, and mixed media pieces.
We try and host at least one major show each month, ranging from individual artist showcases to themed exhibitions that bring together multiple talents. These shows often kick off with previews, some of which are open to the public, while others are exclusive, invite-only events. In between our larger exhibitions, we continuously introduce new artists and pieces, as well as spotlight our resident and chosen artists.
Additionally, The Box Gallery offers a variety of private events, including drinks evenings and private viewings, either by invitation or for groups wishing to book the gallery for a special occasion. To stay informed about our upcoming exhibitions and events, we invite you to join our mailing list and be part of our vibrant artistic community.
