Our role at this beautiful medieval building in Shrewsbury centre is to support local artists and crafters from the town and surrounding areas. If you have learned a new craft, perhaps during lockdown, or have a small cottage industry developing in your home and would like us to sell items for you, contact us at the Bear Steps gallery in St Alkmund’s Place, Shrewsbury SY1 1UJ, or at shycs2023@gmail.com or call us on 01743 344994.

We are happy to accept your greetings cards, prints, ceramics, candles, jewellery, glasswork, linocut, macrame, enamel items and so on. We operate on a ‘sale or return’ basis, and we charge a 25% commission on sales to help us maintain our Grade II listed medieval building.

You can also contact our Shop Manager, Nesta Orrells, for details of our terms and conditions. She can be contacted on 07760 322618, or at nestaorrells@yahoo.com.
