Oriel Gallery was first
opened in June 1992 in Barmouth,
North Wales. Founded by Valerie McArdell with the aid and
support of her husband Kevin, the business has grown from
strength to strength every year since its inception.
Barmouth is in the
Snowdonia National Park on the north side of the Mawddach
Estuary, close to Harlech.
It is said that Barmouth is "where the mountains
come down to the sea."
The business was initially based around tourism,
however, Oriel now has a broadly based client list and sends
art work throughout the UK and also to many overseas locations.
Visitors to the gallery often describe its selection of artwork
as "lively".
We offer diverse styles and subjects which are
framed with flare and skill. Valerie, as well as being the
proprietor of Oriel Gallery, is
also one of the artists in residence. The Gallery is situated
in Barmouth High Street and has possibly one of the oldest
original Victorian shop windows (approximately 150 years old)
in the town.
If you are unable to visit us in person, keep
in touch through this web site. We are always pleased to hear
from people who have an interest in art wherever they are.
