UPDATE: 1st December
After last weekend's difficulties with heavy snow and staff illness, we hope to be fully open this weekend.
During December we'll be open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 10.30am to 4.30pm with classes and other events taking place throughout the week. Please note that face masks are now compulsory inside the gallery. We continue to pay attention to all aspects of COVID 19 safety. Please read the detailed information here.
Explore our Resident Artists' exhibitions and open studios and the work of our Guest Designer Makers. There's a wide range of art and craft on offer including paintings, drawings, original prints (linocut, woodcut and etchings), photography, ceramics, jewellery, hand-made books, prints, cards and more. Our Winter Emporium is open on the ground floor featuring a beautiful selection of original gifts, seasonal cards and sustainable decorations, made with love to give with love.
Under the heading Raising Awareness Through Art we are hosting Leon's Light, an exhibition by young people focusing on mental health and ways to well-being. You can also add your own art work to our Visitors' Gallery and relax with a hot drink in one of our armchairs.
Take a look at the What's On page for details of our seasonal events and live music during December. Learn how to make a Christmas Wreath using natural materials on Saturday 4th December and create a beautiful and lasting moon or star wall hanging at the Christmas Macrame Decorations workshop on Sunday 5th, and make magical woodland lanterns on Sunday 19th. We're hosting 'Stories in Song' by folk quartet, Four Tell on December 3rd, the Buxton Festival Fringe Christmas Party on Saturday 11th, and our final gig of the year brings a superb classical trio, Trilogy Ensemble, with an inspiring programme of music for flute, viola and harp.

About usThe Green Man is an independent contemporary gallery and arts centre in Buxton, Derbyshire, managed and run by its artist members. It is a not-for-profit organisation and all of its staff are volunteers.
The gallery has been open since November 2012 and its current home is Hardwick Studios (formerly known as Hardwick Hall); a fascinating Victorian building in the centre of town. In the past eight years The Green Man has established itself as an exciting creative hub for the local community and visitors alike with a varied programme of exhibitions, workshops, classes and performances. The gallery hosts extensive and ever-changing exhibitions of original contemporary art and craft by gallery members, and by guest artists and designer makers from across Derbyshire. These include paintings, photography, prints, mixed-media, textiles, jewellery, ceramics, leather and glass items and a wide range of original artist cards and postcards. Several of our Resident Artists work in open studio spaces on the first floor. Upstairs there is a large Workshop Room which is available for hire and the ground floor gallery can also be hired as a performance venue and for meetings, talks, presentations and receptions. Entry is free and the welcome is friendly and warm. You can stay for as long as you like to browse and buy or relax with a coffee and chat to the artists on duty.
