OPENING TIMES Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday 10 am - 5 pm We are based right in the heart of Bridlington, a bustling seaside town with beautiful beaches and a working harbour. We are based on the South Side of Bridlington near the harbour
We have visited Bridlington Contemporary, both as visitors and more recently, as exhibitors. Don't be fooled by its location , almost on Bridlington sea front, this is a gallery, where Art is taken very seriously and is displayed in a professional manner. The gallery is run by a dedicated team of four, on a non profit basis, which is so refreshing in this day and age and allows the gallery to operate totally independently and in an innovative way, allowing the widest range of talent opportunity to exhibit.The team are invariably open and welcoming , which makes visits an absolute pleasure. I would advise anyone visiting Bridlington to pay s visit to this gem of a gallery ( just check the opening hours ) as it's not open every day.

Ferens Art Gallery re-opened to the public on Friday 13 January 2017 following its £5.1m refurbishment, celebrating the start of Hull's year as UK City of Culture. Opened in 1927, the award winning Ferens Art Gallery combines internationally renowned permanent collections with a thriving programme of temporary exhibitions. The Gallery has a varied education and events programme that includes tours, talks and art workshops. The gallery's first-class permanent collection of paintings and sculpture spans the medieval period to the present day. These include European Old Masters, particularly Dutch and Flemish, portraiture, marine paintings, modern and contemporary British art, including video. Highlights include masterpieces by Frans Hals, Antonio Canaletto, Stanley Spencer, David Hockney, Helen Chadwick and Gillian Wearing.
Brilliant Art Gallery, what a surprise with wonderful pictures, we thought it was an amazing place well worth a visit.

Wilberforce House is the birthplace of William Wilberforce, famous campaigner against the slave trade. Admission to Wilberforce House is free. The museum tells the story of the transatlantic slave trade and its abolition, as well as dealing with contemporary slavery. Galleries also offer a fascinating glimpse into West African culture. The permanent displays at Wilberforce House include journals and items that belonged to William Wilberforce, including original costume. There are many significant items linked to slavery and the campaign to abolish it. Recently opened galleries contain wonderful displays of local crafstmanship, clock-making, Hull silver collection, the East Yorkshire Regiment and Edwardian Hull Last entry 15 minutes prior to closing
We visited based on the recommendation of a BBC book of 100 places that shaped the UK. The museum is based in William Wilberforce’s family home & is now within a vibrant museum quarter in Hull. There is a wealth of information, set out attractively & accessibly, on the house, the history of slavery, Wilberforce’s political battle to end the slave trade, the Middle Passage, the slave experience, the aftermath of slavery, African culture & contemporary slavery. We didn’t manage to see everything in the time that we had. A great visit & it’s free!
