Pyramid Gallery in York is a celebrated independent art space, established in 1982 and set within a 15th‑century building on historic Stonegate, close to York Minster. Owned and managed by Terry Brett since 1994, the gallery has built a reputation for championing British contemporary craft and fine art, showcasing the work of over 150 makers and artists at any one time. Its displays include original paintings, limited edition prints, ceramics, glass, wood, metalwork, sculpture, and distinctive handmade jewellery, with exhibitions that change regularly to highlight both established names and emerging talent.
