The Fine Foundation Gallery
The Fine Foundation Gallery, at Durlston Castle, offers an ever-changing year-round programme of exhibitions and events.
From exhibitions of fine art or contemporary craft, by artists and makers from all over the country, to scientific or historical exhibitions, every month brings something new.
Many exhibitions explore the wildlife, geology and history of Durlston and the Jurassic Coast or showcase the work of artists and makers working locally.
The Gallery is a stunning contemporary space, designed by MJ Long and supported by the Fine Foundation, which boasts spectacular sea views.
With superb acoustics, a concert-hall quality sound system, and high quality projector and screen, the Gallery is also a superb venue for live music, theatre or performance.
Highlights this summer include 'A Visible Thread' an exhibition brought to us by the 'Seam Collective', the return of Cathy Veale with paintings and limited edition prints and work from Robin Mackenzie and Katy Harrald with their exhibition based on the Shetland Isles.
Music and film also take pride of place with September showcasing the Purbeck Chamber Music Festival and during October we host films during the Purbeck Film Festival.
See the next exhibition programme on our events page.
