Focal Point Gallery Information

Focal Point Gallery supports the production and presentation of new and recent contemporary art that challenges us to think and feel differently about locality, our sense of self and the importance of communities. Our wide-ranging and pioneering artistic programme is relevant to local and national audiences alike, through exploring current concerns that also resonate internationally. Based in Southend-on-Sea on the Thames Estuary, FPG’s activities take place in locations across the region with our reach extended by working collaboratively with like-minded partners. Focal Point Gallery receives regular funding from Arts Council England as a National Portfolio Organisation. The gallery also forms part of Southend-on-Sea Borough Council from which it receives regular support.
