Oakland Gallery

Located in the heart of New Brighton’s independent Victoria Quarter, Oakland Contemporary and Street Art exhibits a mix of contemporary art, alongside pieces from artists heavily involved in the global street-art scene.

The only cultural outlet of its kind in the North West of England, the gallery is part of a wider street art initiative which has to date seen more than twenty-five works of art appear on interior and exterior walls around the Victoria Quarter, commissioned by Rockpoint Leisure.

The street art around the Victoria Quarter has revived the neighbourhood, with artwork by both local and established global street artists including Dotmasters, Ben Eine, Fanakapan, Mr Penfold, Snik, Insa and Nomad Clan.

As part of continuing plans to breathe new life back into the area, a dedicated website and free walking tour has been launched to encourage visitors to the buzzy, little neighbourhood, which is making a big name for itself on the national and international street art scene.

Maps are available for visitors to tour the area and each artwork is fitted with a metal plaque which includes a QR code and visitors can find our more about the mural and its artist by scanning with their smart phone; and will be instantly taken to the New Brighton Street Art Tour website.
