Situated in a lovely park just south of Accrington Town Centre, the Haworth Art Gallery is a must see - and the premier attraction of Hyndburn District with its' display of beautiful iridescent Tiffany Glassware. As well as the Tiffany Glass, this small gallery also has a selection of equally beautiful paintings on display. If you are hungry, try to get a place at the onsite Gallery Kitchen (beware, it can be very popular), for some delicious grub, & you can finish your visit with a gift from the Gallery Shop. The staff are friendly, as well as knowledgeable, & I would definitely recommend Haworth Art Gallery as a half day trip - and repeated trips just to sit & admire the art in one of the galleries - or the scenery outside ! Oh, and the Gallery is free to enter too (donations welcome !)

This was a quick visit just to see what the Haworth art gallery had to offer. It was a free open day, quite busy. The Souvenir shop was located at the entrance. The ladies at the Souvenir shop were really friendly. Tiffany Glass was the main theme located upstairs. A highlight for me was the stained glass window located on the stairway. I have attached an image of just one of the many features of the window. There is a cafe. The house has a vast history and has a beautiful garden for a walk. There are toilets but I didn't use them. There is a car park which is free. I will return to give a more in-depth review at a later date when I am not on a time restricted visit.

Really enjoyed our visit, gent on reception was really helpful,polite and informative. The Tiffany exhibition is a must and well worth seeing as some fantastic pieces on show. Fortunately we visited when a photographic exhibition was on and I met "Martha" who was one of the exhibitors and a very talented photographer who was mine of Information and it was an absolute pleasure to talk to. Would highly recommend to art lovers. Beautiful building and surroundings. You are able to have refreshments on site serving food with a small bar for a wee dram if desired.👌

Free entry but a little disappointed 😞 Lovely Tiffany Glass displays but very few paintings. An Accrington photography exhibition is downstairs with some professional looking photos. Nice cafe with a reasonable menu made up of quite a few vegetarian dishes. However, I was disappointed with the asparagus and smoked cheese quiche, it looked lovely but unfortunately it tasted bland, I would never have guessed that it was made with smoked cheese, I tasted more like a mild cheddar. Sorry I ate it before I had time to take a photo as I was sarving. 😆

Nice free art gallery housed in a beautiful old building in Accrington. It's in a lovely park with views across the local countryside. It has a marvellous collection of Tiffany glass and displays about the previous owners of the house. There's a limited display due to covid restrictions, so you won't see many paintings, but what you will see is stunning. It's got a cafe, shop, toilets and carpark. You can also visit the gardens, park and artist's studio when you're here.
