Established in 1997, Viridian Gallery displays highly individual work of professional quality, reflecting the rich variety of styles to be found in the region. Owned and run by Diane Gainey, a watercolour artist, the gallery aims to work closely with its exhibiting artists; some who have established reputations, and others who's work the gallery has helped to promote.

There are permanent displays of Diane's most recent, atmospheric original watercolours, as well as the full range of her limited edition prints and greetings cards.

The gallery shows the work of other invited professional artists, and exciting displays of ceramics, glassware and design led gift ranges. Strong emphasis is placed on giving each artist an uncluttered exhibition area allowing the public a true view of the work, without distraction.

In addition the gallery holds small, two monthly, `Spotlight on' exhibitions featuring guest artists work

Keswick is an attractive market town located amongst some of the most beautiful scenery in Britain. The gallery is in a quiet side street, opposite the cinema, just two minutes from the main car parks, and is well signposted.
