Here We Aren't

You'll find Here We Aren't tucked away in Cambridgeshire, a contemporary gallery that takes its name from a rather cheeky concept - it's somewhere you probably weren't expecting to discover. The space itself is refreshingly unpretentious, focusing on local and emerging artists rather than the usual suspects you'd encounter in mainstream venues. The work shifts regularly, so repeat visits actually make sense here.

This is the sort of place that appeals to people who genuinely care about art rather than those just ticking off cultural boxes. If you're the type who spends time reading wall notes and thinking about what you've seen, you'll find something worthwhile. Kids will either love it or get restless within twenty minutes - depends entirely on the exhibition and their patience levels.

Based near Peterborough, it works nicely as a half-day diversion if you're using Ferry Meadows Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite or Nene Outdoors Campsite as your base. Both are within a couple of miles, so you're talking a short drive rather than a mission. The gallery's opening hours and admission pricing aren't universally available online, so worth checking ahead before you make the trip - nothing worse than arriving to find it closed on Tuesdays or something equally annoying.

Visit if you're combining it with other Peterborough attractions, but don't detour here specifically unless you already know the current exhibition appeals to you. That's just being sensible with your time.
