Towner opens in Eastbourne

Eastbourne's new art gallery – Towner – is open!
The state-of-the-art gallery, next to the Congress Theatre, and by the seafront was opened on Friday 3rd April by Tate director Sir Nicholas Serota . Towner was designed by award winning Rick Mather Architects.

Towner has exhibition galleries of international standard, fully accessible Towner Collection display, storage and research facilities, a suite of rooms for workshops, events and meetings, large-scale exhibition halls to be used for both conference and art exhibitions, a top floor café and terrace with views of the South Downs, and a well stocked shop.
