Florence Lowry

Flo

Gallery Director

With an inherent knowledge of art from her artistic family, our Director Flo is the integral cog that keeps Beside the Wave one of Cornwall’s most established galleries.

Born and raised in Falmouth, Flo flew the nest to move to Paris before settling in London where she gained a wealth of experience in the creative industry, from display design at Selfridges, to starting her own styling company, before opening the London BTW gallery.

Flo’s connection to the gallery spans several years. She returned home to Falmouth to become the Gallery Director where she is now accompanied by our favourite Gallery Assistant – Alfie the Golden Doodle.
