    A visit on a very wet day that was excellent and worthwhile to see some local artists. It’s not really what I would call a museum which was a selection of art pottery  more »

    Visited the Gallery to view a wonderful exhibition of pen drawings by an iconic Australian artist. Excellent display in a beautiful location overlooking the harbour Manly at its very best!  more »

    Three rooms that are on same level. Good surrounds. Exhibits their collection of small sculpture and pottery upstairs in cabinets. Lovely atmosphere

    If your over at Manly it's worth a visit, gallery display of local artists. Might be your cup of tea. It's not the round building to the left of the picture it's the smaller building to the right
