The Lion Street Gallery is a contemporary art gallery in Hay-on-Wye specialising in original paintings and sculpture by leading and emerging artists from Wales and the Borders.
We curate distinctive, collectible works that combine strong visual impact with long-term artistic value. Whether you are starting your collection or adding to an established one, we offer expert guidance and carefully selected artists.
Our exhibitions change regularly, offering visitors the opportunity to discover original contemporary artwork inspired by the landscapes, culture and atmosphere of Wales and the surrounding regions.

The Gallery is run by Brent and Christina Blair. I'm Brent and I bring with me a wealth of knowledge and experience. With a Fine Art degree and an extensive background in the creative industry, I not only oversee the gallery but also actively practice art myself. If you ever need assistance or insight regarding art purchases or wish to delve deeper into a specific artwork, I'm always here to provide guidance. I'm delighted to share that Culture Trip has rated us as one of the finest galleries to visit in Wales.
Expect a warm and inviting atmosphere when you step through our doors, where even art-loving dogs are welcome.
Opening hours : Wednesday to Saturday 10.30 - 5.00
