Have had a lovely time at The New Art Gallery. Never been before and I am definitely not regreting the time we have spent there. We have seen plenty of beautiful art pieces, however ...in my very personal opinion, and I really don't want to offend anyone, the exhibition which was today on the very top floor....🤦♀️ Sorry, but this I would never call "an art". Really random pieces of anything you will find in garbage bin, putting together, with no shape, no emotion, no story to be told... even hard to describe, as these "art" pieces didn't make any sense at all. The easiest to describe is... possibly a toy revolver, sprayed all-round in pink... (I am regreting now I didn't want to take any pictures of this exhibition 🤷♀️, just to show you ) People do go to galleries and museums to see art pieces which has been made centuries and millenniums ago and yet we still looking at them speachless and fascinated by the absolute beauty , precious make etc, but what are we going to leave for next generations in hundreds/ thousands years ahead ??? Pink sprayed toy revolver? Or many other shapeless, senseless "new art" pieces, impossible to describe or guess the idea behind it , or the purpose of this ?

This was a off the cuff visit. Decided to go here while my wife went shopping (gentlemen worth considering if you and the kids want to do something else while the Mrs goes shopping). I loved this place. The art collections were intriguing but its the stories behind everything that was captivating. The clay models were superb pieces of work. The building has 4 floors. I really lived the community gallery downstairs and it really touched me how so much happiness is bought to the community through art. All ages and walks of life and again some of the stories and images were really inspirational and really lifts your spirits. It was very quite and not very busy so you get time to observe untrusted and collect your thoughts. Lifts available and a gift shop downstairs. A small gallery so won't take all day to see everything. Entrance is free and I highly reccomend this place for art enthusiasts and for those looking to do something to kill time.

Free museum. There is a Carpark very near-4 pounds all day(next to canal) museum is very near the town centre, (almost in it) with good choice of shops and cafe. Children's activities in the museum. Cafe, toilets large and airy not over crowded. Lots going on, there was live music when we went on a Saturday. Also the library in it was open. Easy to access and get around. Art society exhibition on at the moment with some pictures for sale. Support it and save it from closure!

Really well laid out, clean, friendly staff, workshops for kids in School holidays and a Costa coffee to finish. Some art was a little copy cat IMO, but can't argue with the application, many originals also and photos and sketches on display that led to finished art work was nice to see, it's also free. The day I visited there was an outdoor cinema outside also although weather was awful, it's nice to see such an effort being made in the area.

It was our first time here and I am very much impressed with the diversity of artworks that this place has to offer. Modern and ancient obra maestras. Lovely experience
