Gallery I - Is the major gallery space of 4 exhibiting rooms. It features two walls flooded with natural light from skylights above. As such the interior room has a feeling or reference to the outside. All wall areas of the room present the artwork equally well.
Gallery II - Adjacent to room one often becomes the overflow gallery should a feature exhibition not fit in gallery one. It was added to the gallery’s original space in 1980-81. Overhead lighting and half roof beams are a highlight.
Gallery III - Is the original gallery’s room which has open windows to the front courtyard and street and the other end French doors enter onto an inner courtyard. This room features an array if differing sized walls ideal for small-medium sized artworks. Recently this room has become dedicated to our Collectable artworks.
Gallery IV - Also looks out to the front courtyard and street; it features smaller contemporary artworks and it has its own character which encourages a closer look at the works on displays.
