The Photographers' Gallery opened in 1971 at Great Newport Street, Covent Garden, the first gallery in Britain dedicated solely to photography, founded to give free public access to the medium at a time when few institutions treated it as art. It moved in May 2012 to a converted textile warehouse at 16-18 Ramillies Street, Soho, redesigned by O'Donnell and Tuomey following a 3.5 million pound Arts Council grant, with three exhibition floors, a print sales room, a study space and a ground floor cafe. The gallery is a registered charity, funded by a mix of public and private money rather than a commercial parent, and remains a single site with no satellite branches. Exhibitions rotate through emerging and established photographers across the year.
