Tinker Gallery

The Tinker Gallery is located in the heart of Ilkley, Yorkshire. The gallery features contemporary and original work from local and international artists. Established by artist Joanne Tinker, the gallery opened to the public in April 2022 and can be found in Ilkley’s emerging artistic quarter, close to the Manor House. Tinker Gallery will open with Joanne’s own inimitable and colourful art, celebrating the things you and I would normally throw away. Her work is already represented by five leading UK galleries. She also sells internationally and has pieces in private collections, plus in the Museum of Art & Design, New York; the Science Museum, London; and the White Rabbit Collection, Sydney. The Tinker Gallery welcomes visitors to view not only Joanne’s art and her working studio, but – from later this Spring – she will be showcasing other talented, contemporary artists covering a rich and varied use of materials and subject matter. “I am delighted to finally be able to fulfil my lifelong dream of opening a gallery. And what better place than historic spa town Ilkley – my home. I look forward to welcoming you,” says Joanne.
