Bi-Annual Open Exhibition
The Gallery welcomes back the biannual open exhibition for local professional and amateur artists in the region. The selection is made by a jury and as many works as possible are hung in the gallery space, resulting in a very eclectic and exciting exhibition. In the past, each show has been themed(self-portrait, the art of pattern) so that artists are encouraged to make new work especially for the exhibition.

Robert Bevan and the Cumberland Market Group
Southampton holds one of the finest collections of work by the Camden Town Group and related artists in the world and has long championed the promotion of that formative era. Of the more important of the 16 members (including Harold Gilman, Spencer Gore and Charles Ginner), Robert Polhill Bevan has perhaps been the most neglected. Robert Bevan was a founder member of both the Camden Town Group and its main successor, the London Group in 1914. His studio in Cumberland Market gave its name to the small group of artists (Bevan, Gilman and Ginner) who banded together after acrimonious demise of the former. In the following year a few progressive younger artists, John Nash, Christopher Nevinson and McKnight Kauffer were also invited to join.
