About ArtParade

An extract from a news report on opening in December 2005

“ArtParade” is unique in offering both handmade designer crafts and original fine art photography. This arises out of ArtParade’s genesis as “PhotoFolio”, the photography gallery in Salts Mill, which was founded in 1999 by ArtParade’s owner, Beverley Stewart.

“The new gallery lends itself beautifully to displaying crafts on the ground floor, where the light floods in, and photography on the lower ground floor, where we have two rooms with lots of wall space and can control the lighting” said Beverley. “The spiral staircase between the two adds masses of character, but I’m glad to say that we also have access to the lower ground floor via the back door, for those who need it.”

“It’s a lovely environment to work in, and amongst so many beautiful things too.  I want to offer our customers an equally delightful experience. Our twin aims are to offer the highest quality work and to have the friendliest gallery you could ever wish to return to.  I’ll be throwing my front door open when the weather warms up a bit, and visitors will always be welcome to just come in and browse.”

ArtParade offers contemporary designer made ceramics, glass, sculpture, jewellery, textiles, accessories cards and gifts.  Not forgetting the large galleries of original and limited edition photography.

Visit ArtParade and you’ll find displayed a wide choice of items to suit the serious collector or the special gift giver, and a friendly welcome every time.
