REGULAR OPENING HOURS
Hamilton Gallery is temporarily closed to the public while we install our major summer exhibition and refurbish the HG Shop.
During this time we are again hosting FREE weekly HG Play workshops for ages 4-11 in spaces across the region!
The gallery will reopen with Emerging From Darkness: Faith, Emotion and the Body in the Baroque on Saturday 9 December, with the Exhibition Opening event on Friday 8 December – booking essential.
Opening Hours from 9 Dec:
MONDAY – FRIDAY 10AM – 5PM
SATURDAY – SUNDAY 10AM – 2PM
TOURS
Guided tours of the permanent collection and current exhibitions for both small and large groups are available by appointment.
Enhance your group’s visit with a one-hour private tour, led by a knowledgeable guide who can provide an insider’s view of the gallery. Tours may be customised to focus on a specific exhibition or highlight of the collection. There is wheelchair access and lift to first floor.
Bookings are essential and costs may apply- please email us for enquiries.
ACCESSIBILITY
Hamilton Gallery welcomes all ages, abilities and demographics to our free public gallery, and we are working to improve the accessibility of our spaces for every visitor.
We have step-free access and a lift for access to the first floor gallery though the children’s space on the mezzanine is currently accessible only via stairs with a handrail. Exhibitions may feature audio recordings alongside visual experiences, and spaces are often suitable for those with heightened sensitivites to light/sound/movement, though please check with us about our current exhibitions if this is of concern.
Our closest all-abilities bathroom is in the adjoining Hamilton Library.
If you have specific needs or questions, or would like to request images or a floor plan of our facilities, please email us and our team will do our best to assist you.
