Came here because of the robots exhibition. I love watching robot wars so seeing the house robots Sir Killalot and Matilda up close was amazing! 😍 Staff were also really friendly when we walked in they explained what the exhibition was about and offered ear defenders for the noise in case we needed them which I thought was really good of them as I do sometimes struggle with loud noises. Was also cool to see the dalek as you walked in! 😍

Rugby Art Gallery and Museum is a fantastic place to visit and a real gem in the town. The space is modern, clean, and very well organised, making it enjoyable to explore whether you're interested in art, history, or just looking for something interesting to do. The exhibitions are always well presented and there’s a great mix of local history and contemporary art. I particularly liked the museum section that tells the story of Rugby and its heritage. It’s very informative and displayed in a way that keeps visitors engaged. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and helpful, which makes the experience even better. You can tell they care about the visitors and the place itself. It’s also a great spot for families because there are often activities and interactive displays that make it enjoyable for children as well. Overall, Rugby Art Gallery and Museum is definitely worth visiting if you’re in the area. It’s a great cultural space for the community and a really enjoyable way to spend some time in the town.

I made the journey to have a look at the current exhibition "Beyond the Canvas : A Celebration of British Sculpture " which runs until 7th June 2025. If you get the chance you should visit. It is a wonderful exhibition including works by Barbara Hepworth and Elizabeth Frink as well as canvasses by these two and Henry Moore. Its free too so there's no reason not to go and pay it a visit.
