A small gallery, but has some interesting artwork. Has a gift shop, not surprising it is overpriced. Café and library downstairs. You can't get mobile reception in café but they do offer free Wi-Fi. Coffee is okay, not great.

Interesting Art Museum which has a library and a small cafe to relax at the bottom floor. Interesting contemporary art pieces across various subjects, but not the best art museum if to compare with other museums globally. Still, definitely worth a visit! ♿️ wheelchair accessible entrance with lift available to access across different floors. Lots of space to move around inside.

Amazing building, interesting peices and welcoming staff. A must see when visiting this wonderful city. It is accessible with a wheelchair. Though tight in the cute gift shop, I found staff very helpful with any challenges faced. Don't be afraid to ask for support/ help.

It is a large building in the centre of Glasgow and it has a strange layout that requires a bit of navigation to get round. It is over several floors but there is a lift that opens at either end depending on the floor you want to exit. Modern art is always hit or miss. I enjoyed some exhibits more than others. Cafe and library in the basement, shop opposite entry which sells many unique items, so worth a look.

When you visit Glasgow, you won’t miss the Gallery of Modern Art. Not only is the unique building a must-see, but the statue of the Duke of Wellington outside also perfectly captures the Glaswegian sense of humour. The museum itself is relatively small, focusing on modern art rather than historic pieces. However, the interior is filled with interesting works that showcase local artists. I highly recommend starting from the top floor and working your way down. You can easily spend two hours exploring everything within the gallery. The museum also has a gift shop and is free to visit. While donations are appreciated to maintain the facility, they’re not mandatory. Additionally, the basement serves as a local library and coffee shop. Overall, I highly recommend visiting this museum and being open-minded. Even if the art doesn’t suit your taste, take the time to understand why the museum chose to display those works.
