A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
A former school full of contemporary art
An intimate gallery, local makers’ shop and creative programme at the top of Fore Street.
Green Hill Arts is a rewarding small detour on a Moretonhampstead day. The former primary school now holds a bright contemporary gallery, a shop and working studios, bringing visual art into the middle of a Dartmoor town. Exhibitions change regularly, so the experience is less about ticking off a permanent collection and more about discovering what is happening now. The programme includes opportunities to join in, with talks, creative sessions and seasonal maker showcases appearing through the year. Give the work a little time, then browse the shop for a piece that brings something of Dartmoor’s creative community home with you.
