The talent of local artists and the stories of our area, past, present, and future will form the heart of a new exhibition at the Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre.

Pride of Grimsby showcases some of the best contemporary artwork from North East Lincolnshire and celebrates the wealth of talented artists in the local area.

Each artwork represents the artist’s connection with the local area, and the stories which connect them to the place they call home. These stores include personal experiences, family and community, heritage, environment, and local industry past and present.

You can vote for your favourite artwork using the voting cards in the gallery. There is a prize of £250 for the artist who wins the Judges Choice Award. An additional prize of £250 will be awarded for the artist who wins the Visitor’s Choice Award, with an additional £150 for second place and £50 for third place.

The free exhibition will be in the Muriel Barker Gallery until 15 May 2022 every day from 10am to 4pm, except Mondays.
