Longitude Gallery Clitheroe

Goodbye from the Gallery

Longitude Gallery has been the sister business of Latitude Studios - our marketing agency - for over 12 years. In recent months we have been in discussion to merge the marketing side of the business with another company in the Ribble Valley. This has now gone through and has resulted in us relocating to Brockhall Village as a new entity called SUMMIT.

This has unfortunately meant we are no longer in the space at Lee Carter House and have therefore taken the decision to close the gallery.

We have loved the last 12 years - Sarah and I thank all our artists, customers and visitors that have enjoyed the gallery over the years. It allowed us to make some great friends and we’ve hosted some great exhibitions, events and classes. We helped establish Artwalk Clitheroe and Clitheroe Contemporary festival and will continue to support both where we can.

For now we are still looking after Donald Holden’s catalogue of work and our website is now redirecting to the website we created dedicated to his work.

Thank you once again for your support and custom. Sarah and Andy.

Promises to be an interesting spectacle at the gallery today. Plus we’ll have rebecca with her drop in and try event all day again. It was packed yesterday!
