Old Chapel Gallery is at the heart of rural Herefordshire in PEMBRIDGE between Kington and Leominster. It is situated in a key position on the popular North Herefordshire black and white village trail. Established in 1989 by Yasmin Strube, the gallery has gone from strength to strength and has established itself as a centre of excellence where casual browsers and serious collectors of contemporary
British art and craft alike can find work by both established local and nationally known artists and makers alongside innovative work by talented newcomers. Comments in the visitors' book from all over the UK and overseas are testament to the pleasure given by a visit to this unique privately owned gallery with it's professional and friendly service. On display is an ever changing kaleidoscope of crafts: Ironwork, a particular strength - garden furniture - contemporary furniture - wood turning - carving - three dimensional work often using recycled or natural material - fine hand blown glass - sculpture - ceramics - jewellery and textiles with a strong accent on wearables. On the fine art side as well as an eclectic range of original, framed watercolours, gouaches, oils, pastels, etchings and aquatints, there is an interesting collection of unframed prints in browsers and a huge selection of cards. Exhibitions are held regularly which provides the opportunity to introduce new young makers alongside well-known names.
