The Stanley Spencer Gallery is situated in the heart of Cookham, the picturesque ‘village in heaven’ where Spencer was born and painted for most of his life. Established in 1962 the building was transformed ten years ago into a magnificent modern art museum, home to the world’s largest collection of Spencer paintings, drawings, personal letters, photographs, press cuttings and books.
Visitor attractions: film and audio guide; exhibition catalogue; self-guided walk pamphlet; free children’s activity booklet; gift shop.
The Cookham Brotherhood: The Art of Gilbert and Stanley Spencer promises a unique journey into the artistic minds of Stanley Spencer and his brother, Gilbert.
The exhibition is a celebration of the profound influence that Cookham had on the artistic expression of the Spencer brothers. The Cookham Brotherhood, a term coined to encapsulate their close bond and shared dedication to art, serves as the focal point of this showcase. Visitors will be immersed in the idyllic landscapes, intimate portraits, and thought-provoking narratives that define the brothers’ collective legacy.

Group and corporate visits are welcome, with many excellent hostelries nearby. A popular stopping point for coach tours, highly informative and rewarding talks can be arranged and guided walks to the village and countryside where Spencer painted.
Lecture rooms for corporate visits are available by arrangement with the nearby Chartered Institute of Marketing.
