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.
This project is part of a larger regeneration scheme creating a vibrant cultural centre in and around the Royal Pavilion estate in the heart of the new city of Brighton & Hove.
