New – Workshops!

At Dolphin Gallery, we believe art is for everyone. Our workshop programme brings together some of the talented artists who exhibit with us, offering hands-on evenings where you can learn directly from working professionals — and leave with something you’ve made yourself. Wine and nibbles always included.
