Art Space's primary mission is to promote and develop contemporary visual arts by supporting emerging and professional artists' practice through the provision of affordable studios, facilities and an extended network of support and participation to professional artists in the wider community. We provide low cost studios of variable sizes to 31 artists in a converted Victorian chapel and support to an extended membership of artists in the region.
We have the biggest selection of local art in Southsea! Plus a professional picture framing department, a fine art printing service and a fully stocked shop selling art & craft supplies and a superb selection of design led gifts. Hiscock Gallery is situated in Stanley Street, Southsea between Waitrose and the pedestrian high street, Palmerston Road. If you don't live near our gallery and would like to purchase anything you see on our website, just a short phone call will sort it out!
When Artists Harbour first set up in 2004 the majority of our business was as an art gallery and we were situated in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard (see watercolour sketch, left, by Julian Bond). But since then our business growth has been in publishing and services to artists, so we have moved to new premises better suited to these tasks - they do not have the significant distractions involved in running a retail gallery space.
I have around 23 years of experience in the picture framing industry, during which time I have helped individual customers, both retail and trade, with every kind of framing job imaginable, wether it be framing football shirts, embroideries, medals, oil on canvas, 3-D objects, watercolours etc. I give free, non-obligation advice & will be pleased to accept your order, however small or large.
