Gallery tips for St Peter Port

A few things worth knowing before you work through St Peter Port's art galleries:

• Ask the gallerist at Quay Gallery. They know the work, the artists, and what's coming next. Most are delighted when someone asks a real question.
• Small galleries take risks at Sark Gallery. Artist-run spaces show the work the big institutions won't. Some of it's baffling; some of it's the future.
• Kids are welcome (usually). Most galleries are fine with children; the contemporary ones especially. Call ahead if you're unsure.
• The bookshop corner is curated. Gallery bookshops stock the art books the big stores don't. Worth ten minutes on the way out.
