Established in 2010, the Carre Gallery is Sleaford's only visual arts gallery, and is operated by the Sleaford Gallery Arts Trust. It exists to support the emergence and development of Lincolnshire based artists, and welcomes enquiries and applications from individual and collectives.

The Carre Gallery comprises three ground floor rooms, two of which have prominent frontage to Carre Street. The gallery is centrally-heated, with ample naturall light and gallery lighting.
