The Designed in Dorset Art Gallery
Welcome to the Designed in Dorset Art Gallery where we will share our favourite local artists and their work. We have the pleasure of joining forces with a local gallery owner, Kelly Ross who is going to tell us about her favourite artists. Each month we will feature a Dorset Artist and their work to help us grow our local knowledge and give them some publicity. If you are a Dorset based artist and want to feature, please get in touch.
