The UK’s leading fine art retailer, Castle Fine Art, has unveiled a brand-new location for its popular York gallery. Relocating from its previous residence in the Coppergate Centre, the new gallery is now situated in St Helen’s Square, one of York’s busiest locations and a prime spot for retail.

Located alongside fine-dining venue, The Ivy, and the world-famous Betty’s Tea rooms, the brand-new space will showcase the best of Castle Fine Art’s portfolio of limited edition and original artworks by the likes of Sir Billy Connolly, Richard Hambleton and Lorenzo Quinn.

The new gallery boasts a newly refurbished 1,000 sq ft space, just a stone’s throw away from the historic street of Stonegate and York Minster. The bustling tourist location and local hotspot is the perfect space for Castle Fine Art’s relocation and offers the perfect backdrop for all its artworks.
