Such a brilliant art gallery that I’ve visited for many years.
Entry is free and there are regular new exhibitions and events.
Two main exhibits today were the Craig Easton photography exhibition and the worst record cover exhibits.
Visited the L S Lowry exhibition to see the painting of "Going to the Match" which is on tour throughout the country. This painting was purchased recently for £7.8M so it's a great opportunity to see a fabulous piece of Lowry's work plus some additional Lowry works and art by other local artists. The WIlliamson Art Gallery is a fabulous building, and their exhibitions have been great. We also saw the Apollo photography exhibition here last year, which was brilliant 👏
Wonderful hidden gem of a gallery and museum. Attended as part of a sustainability fair and will be back soon to spend more time in the wonderful galleries.
Perhaps in t as hgh profile as some of the other galleries, but well worth a visit.
Hight recommended
Lovely compact gallery and museum. Interesting range of exhibits including Victorian showcase furniture and contemporary art. A bit of a rushed visit but I shall return for a more relaxed perusal... And it's free!!
Nice at gallery and museum. Not very big but can spend half an hour or so here. Had a coffee shop inside too. Free entry and has a parking area next to it.
Amazing place, we went to discover the bad LP art exhibition. It was so much fun we went around 3 times laughing our heads off. Though I will say some of the albums are really classic, Lothar and the Hand People, anyone?
Lovely gallery, contemporary art alongside artefacts of local history. Great cafe and amazing courtyard. I love children’s corner theme related to the exhibition Apollo Remastered.
Very good gallery to visit, the Apollo Remastered exhibition is great, the other rooms are also very interesting. The cafe is reasonably priced and food is good. Della Robbia collection is fascinating.
Nice little art gallery, went to see the exhibition of bad album covers which was brilliant and also loved the maritime section.
Superb. I spent a few hours here and it’s just awesome. Better than Tate, London.
There’s currently a graduate exhibition that’s particularly awesome. Seeing the edgy 21st century artists exhibiting with the old masters is a unique experience & highly recommended. The buildings gorgeous & has a garden too. It’s got a gentle human feel to it; the staff are super friendly, the cafe is fab ( panini & salad excellent) I just love it! I’ve been to a lot of the more famous galleries in Europe but this one has a gentle rhythm that allows the art to take centre stage. Hugely recommended. You’ll find some real surprises in this gallery.
