THE BANKS GALLERY

32 Daniel Street
603.431.9799
www.thebanksgallery.com

The Banks Gallery has quickly become recognized as one of the leading galleries in New England. The gallery has been dedicated to dealing in the finest American paintings and sculpture of the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries. After seven years in serving the New Hampshire Seacoast the gallery moved to it's current location at 32 Daniel Street, in Portsmouth, NH. The Banks Gallery staff is supportive and understanding. You can expect patience and transparency with an equal emphasis placed on the positives, as well as the negatives, of each potential acquisition. In the end, what matters most and what helps us grow our business is earning your trust—something worth far more than any individual sale. This concept has been and will always be our highest priority.
