Established in October 2003 The Edge Gallery is owned by Lancastrians Ian and Priscilla Jones. We have a continually changing and exciting programme of exhibitions by selected artists from across the UK.
Our wide selection of art and design led work includes jewellery, ceramics, textiles, sculpture, paintings, prints, accessories and greeting cards.
We have a contemporary sculpture garden at the rear of the gallery that has enabled us to extend our range of exhibits to house outdoor work suitable for gardens and patios.
We have designed the Gallery interior to create a warm and friendly atmosphere where people can come to purchase and enjoy contemporary art in a relaxed environment.
The Edge Gallery is located in Lancaster's historic city centre with easy access by rail and road. Situated in the very heart of the North West arts scene the gallery is designed to inspire you with a range of new fresh and exciting art from around the UK and Europe.
The gallery aims to give a platform to graduates as well as more established artists with an exhibition programme of 2D work changing every eight week...

The embroideries are worked in dense stitch creating an intuitive response to the use of machine embroidery. One of her embroideries titled ‘Owl Dress’ depicts a figure wearing a garment adorned with a group of figures and an owl, the juxtaposition of the two features can only be described as a haunting image that evokes a truly emotional response.
Michelle Holmes also draws with stitch but in an entirely different way to Cullis. Focusing on the linier qualities the stitched line can create.

I was driven to the Edge.
It’s exactly the right name for this uber-cool gallery, with cutting edge ideas in design – both the place itself and the exhibits on show. But the atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the art is actually affordable. Ceramics, glass, jewellery, prints, all hand made and perfect as gifts
