Our gallery showcases a diverse range of fine art produced by local artists based in and around Thanet. With a team of seven talented artists, we bring a unique and exciting variety of art to the community.
Our Story
New Kent Art Gallery & Studio was founded by local artists Brian Hodgson and Karen H-King, who shared a vision to create an intimate fine art gallery space in Broadstairs. After years of struggling to find affordable gallery space to exhibit their own work, they decided to take matters into their own hands and create a space that would benefit not only themselves but also their fellow artists. With the support of their team, they transformed a small unit in the heart of Broadstairs into a thriving gallery space.
