This Chapel Street gallery and tea room hosts 8-12 week long exhibitions giving emerging artists a chance to showcase their work.

A family venture that combines a love of art with coffee, tea and cake, GK Gallery offers a much-needed injection of contemporary art into Salford’s Chapel Street area. The focus of the Gallery is on graduates from Salford and Manchester Universities but also people from the local surrounding areas, which is a great thing for up-and-coming artists in Salford and Manchester.

The tea room offers freshly-made hot drinks, cakes and savouries in a bright and relaxed space, where dogs are welcome.
