Atelier Beside the Sea is an art gallery, shop and makers workshop situated on Brighton Beach. We aim to be the best art gallery in Brighton; a beacon of creativity offering the best in contemporary art and craft to our local community and visitors alike, as well as a home for creative workshops and classes to educate and inspire.
We represent more than 160 artists and makers, from Brighton and far beyond. With printmakers, jewellers, painters, ceramicists, wood-workers, publishers, knitwear and textile artists - and many more besides - in an ever changing gallery display.
We host exhibitions, with artists from across the globe, and dozens of classes and workshops, including jewellery-making, painting, ceramics, weaving, paper-cuts, cyanotype, punch-needle, basket-making, photography, and many more besides.
We've welcomed conferences, book and product launches, artist's talks, parties, meetings, creative networking events and private views, and we are proud to be home to the Beehive Art Club - a Community Interest Company that provides an affordable, inclusive community Art Club each Thursday.
Come and visit us in the iconic seafront arches.
Open every day 11am - 5pm

We welcome artists working in all disciplines and styles — from painting to printmaking, sculpture to textiles, photography to ceramics. If you make it, we want to see it!
Last year we showed over 250 pieces of work by 180 artists. The exhibition runs throughout the school summer holidays, right when the seafront is buzzing with visitors — it’s an incredible opportunity to have your work seen.
