The Venue

Galleries

Our ground floor gallery, The Spring Gallery (pictured), is the place to enjoy work by a wide range of contemporary artists and craftspeople. Exhibitions change every week, so there’s always something new to see. 

The second floor is home to our Main Gallery, a much bigger exhibition space with large original windows - filling the space with light. Our Annual Members' Summer Exhibition is held here every August, as well as a number of Falmouth University's end-of-year shows.

If you're interested in exhibiting in either of our galleries, get in touch with Sarah or Jasmin at guild@thepoly.org for more information. 

The Poly Pottery

Our community pottery offers a range of courses and services for every skill level, from beginners through to experts. 

On our beginners course you can learn techniques like pinch pots, coil pots and slab making with our master potter Karl Owen. Or you can take our throwing and intermediate courses to build on your existing skills. 

We also offer a kiln firing service, studio spaces, clay sales, and drop in sessions for experienced potters and ceramicists. 

Follow @polypottery_falmouth on Instagram for updates and find what courses we currently have available here.

Theatre

Our 160+ seat theatre is the perfect place to watch independent, art-house and foreign films, experience both local and national theatre, and enjoy a wide range of comedy, music, and talks.

This cosy and characterful space is also available to book for private film screenings at off-peak times - offering a unique opportunity for special occasions. To find out more, email info@thepoly.org
