I love this little art gallery shop.

Someone must be a fairy fan. There is quite a variety of media as well, from paintings to drawings to collage art. The quality of this art is excellent, so I have no doubt that the prices are good for what you are getting. But remember, you're buying art, so it's not going to be cheap.

A really good range of art and beautiful unique handmade crafts (a lot on my wish list!) and we found something in our budget that we can both enjoy for ever. A really lovely visit - could easily have stayed all day! We'll be visiting again as soon an possible. Worth noting - easy parking and public loo facilities in the complex which was a useful and welcome bonus.

There is nothing intimidating about Novus Contemporary Art, a family owned gallery in Didsbury, and…read morethat's what I love about it. There are probably some art purists out there who hate the concept of a gallery that is warm, welcoming, reasonably priced and varied, but for me these can only be pluses. Supporting local artists as well as established names, you can see everything from abstract to still life in originals, limited edition prints, sculptures, ceramics and glass. I've become something of a familiar face in here because everyone is so welcoming and happy for you to spend as much time as you like appreciating the art. There's nothing bad I can say about this place.

This is such a beautiful building, and the perfect space for such a wonderful gallery.

Hung on the tiled walls, they have works from my personal favourites, James Lawrence Isherwood and Arthur Delaney to name but two. Apart from the wonderful canvases, there's a bespoke framing service and a very large selection of cards and unique wrapping papers which I'm sure serves as the gallery's bread and butter in between artwork sales. A delight.

There were some pretty ones of old houses and halls around England, seascapes, animals, etc. There is an upstairs to the shop as well with a nice gallery of both paintings and photographs on canvas. The variety of styles and sizes is great, so there's something for all art lovers here. The prices are very decent for art.

I heard about Bear Steps Art Gallery as a result of seeing the advertisement for an exhibition of a…read morelocal artist who I'm connected with on Face Book. Fancying a trip somewhere new for my day off, I decided to go along and visit Shrewsbury, catching her exhibition at the same time. The gallery is tucked away in an idyllic little courtyard, near to a church, and next to Bear Steps Cafe. It's in an old building situated over two stories with 3 open plan rooms and the reception area. It's full of character and is very light with a great feeling of space. The exhibition I was going to see took up a little over two thirds of the space, with another equally interesting exhibition upstairs in the furthest room. From the looks of their website, they have local exhibitions on all the time, so with free entry, it's worth popping along if you in the area and seeing what's currently on show.

We held our exhibition at Bear Steps Art Gallery last winter and despite the freeing conditions…read moreoutside the gallery was warm and cosy and really busy the whole time we were there. We are holding another exhibition this Spring and really look forward to welcoming more visitors. There is a cafe next door, so it's ideal for those wanting a spot of lunch or refreshments and a look around some original and local artists work. A lovely little secret that is easily missed but well worth seeking out!

Well you'd be hard pushed to get in or out of Halifax without noticing the Dean Clough building…read more It's nationally renowned as a prime site in Halifax and it's not just a business emporium. It does house quite a few private businesses and office space but it has so much more to offer than that. First up take some live theatre and music. The Crossley Gallery has fast become a key place for many Jazz acts to come and ply their trade. You've also got the Viaduct Theatre which attracts classical music and of course live stage productions. If that's not your thing then the art galleries are pretty impressive. They get some really interesting exhibitions and change them about quite regularly. Add to that a nice design shop, café and a restaurant and it's a treat that you'd maybe not expect to find in these industrial looking walls. Loving your work here.

It's a nice central clean building. The viaduct cafe is nice and the Design House Restaurant is pretty decent too. I like the galleries here - it's quite nice during a stressful day to wander downstairs and look at the pictures or sculptures - helps calm me down and face the day. There is also a very nice gift shop.
