New for LONDON, The Spirit of Art Whisky & Gin Festival - a 3-day celebration of the arts and spirits featuring Wemyss Family Spirits

Welcome to Crane Court Gallery, a commercial Art Gallery uniquely located in the heart of the historic City of London, just off Fleet Street, and just a short walk from the Strand and Covent Garden to the west, and St Paul's to the east.

From 23 July to 31 August 2025 we are holding our Square Mile Summer Exhibition, showcasing a marvellous and exciting range of affordable British and International contemporary art. Entry to the Gallery is free.

Over the opening weekend of the Square Mile Summer Exhibition, from Friday 1 August to Sunday 3 August 2025, we are celebrating the Spirit of Art with a 3-day Whisky and Gin Festival, organised in collaboration with Wemyss Family Spirits, one of Scotland's leading independent distillers and bottlers of malt whiskies and natural gins.

Each day, art lovers and whisky and gin enthusiasts will enjoy a programme of tastings and art taking place at the gallery from noon to 6pm. Tickets cost £28 a head and include four drams across our range of malt whiskies and premium gins, with complimentary nibbles. There will also be a cash bar for extra drams and bottle sales.

Each early evening, we are holding whisky tasting masterclasses from 7pm to 8pm. These intimate evening Gallery events will take you on a journey through the art show to the accompaniment of fine Malts. Tickets cost £54 a head and include 5 drams from our premium single cask range with complimentary nibbles.

Later each evening, from 8pm until 11pm, you can join us for a more informal and relaxed tasting session. Tickets similarly at £54 a head and include 5 drams from our premium single cask range with complimentary nibbles. You can also prebook from our curated range of desserts and chocolates.
