🌿🖼️ Applications are now open for Rugby's outdoor gallery for local creatives!

Celebrating Makers Of Art in Town, the MOAT gallery also got it's name from a moated manor which sat on what is now Regent Place in the late 1130s.

There is no cost to display your artwork, but exhibitions are selected by a panel of judges.

The MOAT gallery features four A1 frames, and an introduction panel. Although weather tight, due to the length of the exhibitions and changing weather we recommend the display features prints to ensure artworks are safe and undamaged.
