WELCOME TO OUR NEW WEBSITE

Welcome to Tore Art Gallery 2010, and our brand new website. It has been created by Plexus Media, of Cromarty, and funded by the Scottish Arts Council, and we hope it will make it easy and enjoyable to see exactly what is on show here, and purchase if you wish.

Please explore the website - see the menu above for all the information you need.

You will find a warm welcome at the largest gallery in the Highlands, a landmark renovated church building, light and airy, always filled with an extensive, exciting and varied selection of original work from established and emerging artists. The contemporary art that we choose offers a visual experience that is enriching and uplifting; most importantly the works are able to speak for themselves with honesty, skill, beauty and clarity.

NEW: Tea and coffee are now available in the gallery, with our own home-made shortbread. You'll have to help yourself and there's a donation box for the Highland Heart Nurse Appeal. I hope this will be useful to our visitors, given that there are no coffee shops in the immediate area.

Please see the Exhibitions page for our 2010 programme, and the About page for opening times etc. Browse Artists will lead to full information on the works currently exhibited.
