Description:

Brighton Museum & Art Gallery has been transformed by a £10 million redevelopment.

Dynamic and innovative new galleries provide greatly improved access to the Museum's nationally and locally important collections. Objects are displayed in stimulating contexts with a wide range of interpretative techniques, including the latest interactive information technology.

Facilities include: the Museum entrance in the Royal Pavilion gardens with a spacious foyer and shop; improved disabled access; new education facilities with an art room and a dedicated education 'pavilion'.

The Museum has worked with community groups to broaden access to its collections and services. A Hindu shrine in the World Art gallery created with the local Gujarati community, and oral histories of local people are examples of these collaborations.
