Guildhall Art Gallery
 

Many famous and much-loved pictures are once again on view for the public to see and enjoy in the new Guildhall Art Gallery which opened in 1999. The original gallery was burned down during a severe air raid in May 1941.

The new gallery displays about 250 works of art at a time, with a programme of temporary exhibitions exploring different themes and allowing many lesser-known pictures from the collection to come out of store.

As a result of essential works there will be no lift access to the Victorian Galleries between 18 September 2006 and January 2007 – access to these rooms will be via staircase only (other areas in the Gallery and the Amphitheatre will not be effected).

Due to Civic Functions the Gallery and Amphitheatre will be closed to the public, on Saturday 11 November until 12.00 noon (at which point entry will be free), and will be closed all day on Monday 13 November.

Opening Hours
10am–5pm Monday–Saturday (last admission 4.30pm)
12 noon–4pm Sunday (last admission 3.45pm)

Closures
The Gallery is closed Christmas Day, Boxing Day and
