Art and Falmouth have become synonymous with a host of galleries a mainstay of Falmouth’s streets.

Falmouth’s streets are often awash with colour, contemporary exhibitions and engaging installations.

The Fal River arts community carries on growing around the central hub of University College Falmouth.

Cornwall is revered by artists around the world for its quality of light and Falmouth is no excpetion. The sun rises out in the bay and, when there is glass-like still water, great vistas like no other.

The exceptional beauty of the area and the quality of light are the perfect marriage with Falmouth’s laid-back vibe and the reason artists from across the globe flock to Falmouth.

Theatre and dance have also been known to come alive on Falmouth’s streets and even on the boats that cross Falmouth harbour.

There are times when Falmouth captures the true Bohemian spirit, distills into its winding streets and harbour front to create a wonderful atmosphere that pervades the town.
