In February 2023, Haricot Gallery opened its doors at 2 Blackall Street, located in the heart of Shoreditch, East London. The gallery focuses on showcasing the work of leading local and international contemporary artists.

 

Haricot Gallery was founded with a clear mission: to transform the way art is experienced. We had too many examples of going to galleries and feeling nervous and uncomfortable when inside. The cold, eerie environments made it nearly impossible to engage with and celebrate the artwork. We found ourselves feeling uninspired, alienated, and wanted to completely change the narrative. 

 

Our belief is simple: coming to engage with art should be an incredibly warm, fun, and exciting and transparent experience. We recognised the need for change in London's art scene, where visitors often feel an urge to leave the moment they step foot inside a gallery. Art should not be viewed with trepidation; instead, it should be an inclusive and welcoming experience. At Haricot Gallery, our main goal is to ensure that everyone who enters our doors feels genuinely welcome and at ease.
