What visitors say
I visited this art gallery in Leeds, a truly remarkable place filled with artwork from various artists and eras, sculptures, exhibitions, cafes, souvenir shops, and an intriguing library. I could sense the staff's dedication to prioritizing service, providing knowledge, and offering details to visitors. The atmosphere was simple and peaceful, perfect for all ages to appreciate art. The building was spacious with multiple galleries showcasing artwork for everyone to admire.🖼️ I spent hours walking around, managing to see every room, including the other side of the building. It was an exceptional experience for art enthusiasts like me. If you have time, you should visit once.🧑🎨

I’m often in Leeds so can’t believe this was my first visit to the Art Gallery. It is a most impressive building and houses a mix of permanent and temporary exhibitions. It’s free to enter but visitors are encouraged to give a donation. It links seamlessly into the Henry Moore via a class corridor. PS The Tiled Cafe is absolutely stunning! They have a comprehensive range of drinks and cakes and a choice of seating.

Always make a point of visiting here when I'm in Leeds. Love their permanent pieces and was very impressed with their current exhibition. Very thought provoking pieces about realty. Highly recommend a visit here.

Its a long time since I'd visited the gallery but I'm so glad I went back. Its beautifully laid out and made very accessible for all ages and abilities. Exhibits are changing on a regular basis so there's often something new or different to see. Free entry, but donations are welcomed! There's a lovely shop and refreshments are available in the beautiful Tiled Hall cafe. The Henry Moore gallery is right next door and it's easy to get from one to the other through internal corridors.
