Scarborough Art Gallery showcases a rich collection of fine art in a historic setting. Housed in a Grade II* listed Italianate villa on The Crescent, the gallery’s permanent collection has expanded since 1947 through gifts, bequests, and purchases, reflecting Scarborough’s vibrant cultural heritage. The gallery’s offerings include paintings, prints, sculptures, and decorative arts, with works by artists like John Atkinson Grimshaw and contributions from the Scarborough School of Art. Notably, it features the St Thomas Street Hoard, a collection of Tudor silver coins discovered locally.
