A family-run art gallery full of old world charm, Cherrylane Fine Arts
occupies renovated 17th century buildings in
the village of Killincarrig. They stand on a private lane in the grounds of what was
once a famous cherry orchard. This unique setting provides a showcase for
contemporary paintings and indoor and outdoor
sculpture along with Giclée prints and photography by some of Ireland's most renowned artists.
The gallery is owned and run by the Hayes family Michael, Mary, Robert and Jennie
three generations whose collective experience in the business amounts to more than 150 years. Michael,
a Master Bespoke Framer, and his wife Mary have been providing a framing service to many of
Ireland's most prominent artists, galleries, auction houses and collectors for more than 20 years. Their
son Robert manages the business; daughter Jennie is the
Art Director, while Michael's father Christy helps out 3
days a week truly a genuine family business!
Because of their position as framers, the Hayes are
well-placed to secure a broad selection of well-known
Irish and international art. The paintings, sculptures,
prints and photographs come from both established artists
and young, upcoming talents. Many exhibitions are
held throughout the year full details are listed on Cherrylane's website. Since 2001, Cherrylane has also been offering a fine
art Giclée printing service the first in Ireland to do so.
And plans are under way to create an
outdoor sculpture garden on the site.
Cherrylane is located in a particularly scenic area with
the unspoiled coastal village of Greystones just up the road and
the famous Sugar Loaf Mountain rising to the west. The National
Garden Exhibition Centre is about a 10-minute drive away; the
beautiful Powerscourt Gardens and Waterfall about 20 minutes. There are
many golf courses in the locality including Druid's Glen and an
extensive choice of country guest houses, restaurants, pubs and cafes.
