Terre Verte | North Cornwall
St Mawes Gallery | St Mawes
Blue Lias Gallery | Lyme Regis
Contemporary Art Gallery based in North Cornwall & online.
​
Named for one of the oldest artist’s pigments, Terre Verte is an artist’s space established in 2014 as a place for quiet inspiration, nature and imagination. The gallery stages themed exhibitions, showing contemporary landscape and
abstract work by local, national and international artists.
We nurture collaborations between artists and writers; our focus on ‘place’ creates frequent opportunities to show work that is different and unseen. The gallery is located in the peaceful moorland village of Altarnun; it runs entirely on solar and biomass energy, there is a free charging point for your EV and an excellent coffee shop next door.
​
Visit us at Altarnun PL15 7SJ, just off the A30. We are open from April to December on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays 10.00 – 5.00 and by appointment at any other time.

​
Faye and Harry opened St Mawes Gallery in spring 2017 after moving to the area from the Cotswolds. When the opportunity to take over a shop arose, they took it and converted it to a gallery with the intention of creating a relaxed atmosphere where everyone can enjoy great art. In summer 2021 Faye and Harry hired Jasmin to help manage the gallery. They look forward to sharing their love of art with you in this beautiful location.
​
As a gallery we want to take sustainability seriously. That’s why we are moving away from plastic packaging, introducing eco friendly marketing materials and maintaining our relationship with a local delivery service, transporting Fine Art from St Mawes to London and further afield.
We are a lovely little gallery located in the heart of Lyme Regis, selling local arts, ceramics & Jewellery.
​
We have a beautiful, colourful, sometimes odd selection of art chosen from the heart to make you smile.
​
Visit us or browse our online gallery and if you wish to order anything in particular then please get in touch.
