Exhibition of local artists

If you have been looking for a reason to head down to the seafront lately, there is a new exhibition currently open at the Seafront Gallery that might be worth a look. As of today, April 29, 2026, the space is hosting a collective show that brings together the work of 65 local artists. It is a fairly significant gathering of talent, and given the number of contributors involved, the variety of styles and mediums on display is quite broad.

Walking through the gallery, you will find that the collection covers a range of perspectives on the local area. The pieces on display touch on several familiar themes, including detailed depictions of our local seafront and its most iconic landmarks. Beyond the immediate coastline, some of the artists have focused their work on portraits of people living in the community, while others have turned their attention to the landscape of the South Downs. It is interesting to see how different creators interpret the same surroundings, whether through painting, photography, or other artistic mediums.

This exhibition is currently active, so if you are planning a walk along the front, it is easy enough to stop by and see the work for yourself. It offers a straightforward look at the current creative output of Brighton’s artistic community without much fuss. Since the gallery is right on the seafront, it fits naturally into a standard route if you are already out and about in the city. It is simply a space to view these 65 different approaches to our local environment, and you can decide for yourself which pieces resonate with you.
