A great place to visit - a must see if you go to Dundee. It’s right on the riverside next to the Discovery and Discovery exhibition.nThe building itself is very impressive-you can learn more about it inside the museum.nIt has a rolling program of exhibitions- we were lucky enough to see the Dundee Tapestry panels and there will be a kimono exhibition next month.nThe Design exhibition is also really interesting.nThe staff are fab! Really helpful and with so much local knowledge. As the tourist information office has been closed this is the place to visit for a street map and lots of local information.nThe building is light and bright with good toilet facilities, a cafe and a lovely little gift shop.
Though modern architecture is not my cup of tea, this building seems to have checked all the right boxes for me. A stunning rock-like exterior reveals a cavern like interior with friendly wooden panels. The museum presents art and design in and from Scotland, while the “Dundee Tapestry” presents the city and its people in all their colourful glory. My personal favourite is Rennie Mackintosh’s Oak Tea-Room, a perfectly preserved space that immerses you to this artist’s visionary work. The cafe is great with friendly staff and a good choice of sweet and savoury treats. This museum is a good reason to visit Dundee.
Our greeter was absolutely fantastic with my 5yo daughter, and the Selkie trail is lots of fun for little kids. Didn't take the tour but looked really good. Cool building, especially loved the floor. Lots of art students poncing about. Recommend a visit for sure!
There is no doubt this is a unique building outside and inside. For all the space inside I just didn't think it offered much. Entrance is free and I would say it is just as well. Once inside there is only a shop on the ground floor and upstairs there is a cafe which was very busy. I did enjoy the tapestry exhibition which was on at the time of visit. That really is it, the McManus Art Gallery/Museum is far superior.
Great visit to Tartan Exhibition. Very impressive building, with long standing Scottish Design updated since my last visit. Tartan Exhibition was very informative about history and many instances in fashion. Fantastic facilities and even have hourly tours for free that start at 12.30.
