The Green Man Gallery - Buxton

Nandina Mason

Amazing artwork and crafts for sale. Unique raku pottery, fabrics, photography and so much more. Great place for something different. Always new stuff coming in. Lovely to see the workshops upstairs. Really friendly helpful staff. Just keep a check on opening hours as they do change from time to time.

Very beautiful gallery, supporting local artists and designers. We had wonderful experience walking and exploring art through the eyes of each artist in the gallery. I love my new clay plate purchased in the shop of the gallery too. Please donate and support local artists. ️?️

Great place to pass an hour. Lots of art to see, most of which is for sale. (Although, it did seem very expensive to me, but I don't know enough about art to say it wasn't worth it) Free to enter and a good hour to see everything properly. It's well worth a visit. ☆☆☆☆☆

The Green Man is an independent contemporary gallery and arts centre in Buxton, Derbyshire, managed and run by its artist members. It is a not-for-profit organisation and all of its staff are volunteers.

The gallery has been open since November 2012 and its current home is Hardwick Hall, a fascinating Victorian building in the centre of town. In the past five years The Green Man has established itself as an exciting creative hub for the local community and visitors alike with a varied programme of exhibitions, workshops, classes and performances.

There are extensive and ever-changing exhibitions of original contemporary art and craft by gallery members, and by guest artists and designer makers from across Derbyshire. These include paintings, photography, prints, mixed-media, textiles, jewellery, ceramics, aromatics, hand-carved wooden items and a wide range of original artist cards and postcards.

Upstairs there is a large Workshop Room which is available for hire and the ground floor gallery can also be hired as a performance venue and for meetings, talks, presentations and receptions.
​
Entry is free and the welcome is friendly and warm. You can stay for as long as you like to browse and buy or relax with a coffee and chat to the artists on duty.

Great place to browse with affordable art and a wide range of different subjects.

The artists take turns in manning the gallery and it is great to hear from them.

Don't miss it it's right in the town centre and open most days even through the winter months.

A very interesting display of local artists work and pieces for sale for varying prices. Definitely somewhere I would come back again with my artist hubby and well worth a visit. Even approach had art made even from milk bottles!

What a warm and friendly welcome everyone receives when walking into this art centre. On the ground floor you can fewer wide-range of works for sale, have a cup of coffee or browse books in their creative library. Then upstairs, the artists studios are sometimes open for you to view their work in progress. There's a genuinely supportive and positive atmosphere here.

Lovely place with lots of art from local artists, with some working on site.
Two and a half floors (you will understand when you go) of different types of paintings etc. Lovely old building, just needs doing up a little on the outside, but don't let that put you off.
