A creative community in the heart of GuildforD

Our ethos is to create an inspiring and inclusive space for all to be creative and grow their artistic disciplines and businesses.

Exhibitions

What’s on

Brick building with painted signs reading "GALLERY," "NEW HOUSE," and "ART SPACE," with windows and blue lights illuminating the signs, in a parking lot during dusk.

Step inside New House Art Space , where the lines blur between creation and connection.

A bit of a haven for the aesthetically inclined and culturally curious, we’re here for the dreamers, the sketchers, the late-night thinkers, and the rule-breakers.

From boundary-pushing exhibitions to coffee fuelled Drink & Draw sessions, New House Lates, and genre-defying Writing Saloons — we’re not just hosting events, we’re pivotal in supporting a culture . Think open studios, rent-a-space moments, and unexpected collisions of art and ideas.

About

The table has drawing supplies, a smartphone, and a disposable coffee cup. Other people are visible in the background, also engaged in creative activities in a well-lit room with artwork on the walls.

We’re here to spark something — to nurture the offbeat, celebrate the collective, and amplify creative voices from all corners. Come through. Stay weird. Make art. Be seen.
