About the Riverslade

The Riverslade Gallery is run by the Saffron Walden Arts Trust (SWAT). The Gallery features a wide range of works in a variety of media produced by local and regional professional artists.

The Gallery stocks original paintings & drawings, etchings & prints, ceramics, sculpture, textiles, glass, jewellery, mosaics and woodwork. The more expensive items may be purchased by instalment.

Handmade cards featuring work by our exhibiting artists are on sale all year round, as well as for special occasions such as Christmas and Valentine's Day.

The Riverslade Gallery is staffed by volunteers. It also serves as the offices of SWAT. SWAT is a registered charity (no. 271365) organisation which coordinates, encourages, and promotes artistic enterprises of all kinds in the Saffron Walden area. It organises arts events in the area including the Saffron Walden Arts Festival and the Arts in Walden website which is a calender of arts events in the area.
