Art galleries in London

Galleries are best taken slowly. London, England has 337 mapped right now. That's 337 galleries mapped around London. The exhibition schedule matters more than the count: a small gallery with a great current show beats a big one between exhibitions. Opening nights are the cheat code — free entry, the artists in the room, and a crowd that actually wants to talk about the work.

This guide covers every art gallery we could verify in and around London (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include The Sassoon Gallery and Pangolini, plus The Fine Art Society. If a gallery's missing from London's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

What the map tells us about art galleries in London

82 of the 337 list their opening hours on the map, which is genuinely useful — galleries keep proper public hours, so plan around the listed times.

224 have websites listed. That's where the current exhibition is announced — the one thing worth checking before you visit.

There's a cluster: 2 of them sit on 133 Rye Lane, so you can string those into one walk and drive between the rest.

224 galleries list websites — that's where the current exhibition is announced, and it's the one thing worth checking before you visit.

The London gallery walk

The efficient London gallery walk strings these together: The Sassoon Gallery on 21 Blenheim Grove, Pangolini on 90 York Way, The Fine Art Society on 148 New Bond Street, Beaux Arts on 48 Maddox Street, Helly Nahmad Gallery on 2-4 Cork Street, WW Gallery on 34/35 Hatton Garden, The Octagon Gallery on Gower Street, and October Gallery on 24 Old Gloucester Street — 337 stops, one logical order. 329 more are listed below.

Gallery tips for London

A few things worth knowing before you work through London's art galleries:

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around London — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new art gallery in London can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 337 that's closed, or a great art gallery we missed, the fix is to update the map itself — that's where this guide reads from.

We don't review exhibitions — shows change too fast. What we list is the where: real galleries, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 337 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.

Art gallery listings for London: 337 mapped from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Photos from Wikimedia Commons contributors; individual photo credits appear in captions. Listing data was last refreshed automatically — verify hours before visiting.
