I visited the new Cosmos exhibition. This is awesome, instructive, moving and inspirational. I spent a very happy couple of hours there and now know what a muon is! I went to the café afterwards - pleasant,efficient staff and interesting food selections. I'd certainly go back.

The Royal West of England Academy of Art. A name so long there's not a lot of room left to praise the exterior. I didn't enter on the grounds that they may have tried to teach me something. I'm not having that at my age. The building compliments the nearby Victoria Rooms. Did you know that Barry Manilow didn't write 'I write the songs'. It was actually written by the Beach Boys' Bruce Johnston. On 1st January, 2024 there were 13,336 Asian restaurants in the U.K. You learn something new every day.

This is a great regional gallery. Its annual open exhibition is the equal of the London Royal Academy's, which I also go to. Various large and small gallery spaces. Great café. Modest shop.

Lovely historic building with attractive cafe. The annual open exhibition is very interesting and well presented. The art is also reasonably priced if anything takes your fancy.

An excellent gallery. Newly refurbished with greatly improved accessibility and an excellent cafe. A varied set of exhibitions including the annual open submission each autumn. The gallery spaces are really beautiful in themselves. Enough room to show substantial pieces or a large exhibition without overwhelming. Two smaller rooms are usually free to enter. The main gallery usually charges a fee. There is an active friends group.
