Welcome
Astley Cheetham Art Gallery in Stalybridge was built as a gift to the town by John Frederick Cheetham and his wife Beatrice Astley in 1901. The gallery originally opened as a lecture theatre and then the space was turned into a gallery to house the Astley Cheetham Art Collection, bequeathed in 1932. This collection has grown with gifts and donations throughout the twentieth century and is one of the most interesting small regional collections.
The gallery is family friendly and we welcome visits from children. We always have a craft activity on offer, there are children’s books about artists to read and an eye spy trail of things to spot in the paintings on display.
Some comments from visitors to the gallery include:
“Great little gallery. A real hidden gem in Stalybridge. We will be back!”
“Fantastic display enjoyed by all the family. This was well worth the visit and we will definitely come again.”
“A lovely exhibition. Something to do for old and young alike.”
Entry to the gallery is FREE.
