ART GALLERY AT DENBIES
We opened our Picture Gallery in 2002 and since then it has been an inspiration for the hundreds of artists and photographers who exhibit in the gallery every week. The Gallery predominantly hosts local artists and is located on the mezzanine level of Denbies reception area, offering a unique space which attracts thousands of visitors each year.

Freedom of Expression: Contemporary Textile Art by CQ Surrey
CQ Surrey turns three in January 2026 and, to celebrate the occasion in style, we are mounting our first major exhibition at the Denbies art gallery. With a nod to our lovely vineyard venue, we will be including work on the theme of Wine. Our exhibition will highlight the diversity of our creative inspirations, methods of making and use of materials. As well as the work on the walls, there will be smaller textile pieces for sale. Come and see how we explore ways of expressing our thoughts and feelings through the joyful, and sometimes subversive, power of stitch.
CQ Surrey (Contemporary Quilters Surrey) is a friendly, inspiring group which meets monthly and welcomes new members at any stage of their quilting journey.

Surrey Artists Collective
‘Surrey Artists Collective returns to Denbies this spring with a vibrant new exhibition celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and contemporary art.
This dynamic group of nine Surrey-based artists showcases a diverse and inspiring collection of original work, ranging from striking paintings and photography to prints and distinctive handcrafted gifts. Each piece reflects the individuality of its maker while contributing to a cohesive and exciting exhibition.
Working across an impressive range of media—including oil and acrylic, lino print, glass, textiles, and mixed media—the artists bring fresh perspectives and creative energy to every work on display.
Visitors are invited to meet the artists in person, gain insight into their creative processes, and enjoy a unique opportunity to discover — or commission — a truly special piece to take home.’
