Introducing our 2025 Exhibition 'Sea Change - St Ives Artists 1914-1930'

Following on from our two previous exhibitions telling the story of the evolution of the St Ives Art Colony, this year we are featuring paintings created between 1914 and 1930. By this time the reputation of the colony was well established and many renowned and lesser known artists came to the town to paint. We are featuring over 40 works representing this important period.

 'I was advised by a very learned elderly friend of mine that this museum is one of the top three he has ever visited in his life.
He was not wrong! Thank you'
