About Venue

A £15 million development has transformed the gallery, doubling it in size and creating new spaces that embrace the park it calls home.

Yet although the Whitworth is about to open a new chapter in its history, the organisation itself has a much broader story to tell.

You'll be able to find out about that story here, alongside information about our research projects, our wonderful historic collection, the Friends of the Whitworth, the people who work here and much more.

Excellent art gallery associated with the University of Manchester. It has a beautiful cafe that overlooks the park. The exhibition are always unique and interesting - love this place!

It was great to be able to see the various exhibitions for free. The weather was nice, so I even had a meal at the cafe.

such a quite experience on a Friday afternoon, entry is free and they have a lovely gift shop+cafe at the back which overlooks the park. I enjoyed looking at a range of art and will definitely be back for the next exhibition!

Before I leave home,I checked if booking needed, no need. Got there about 10.30. quite busy but ok. Just look for the exhibitions, would go another day for more. Performing trees, exploring the changing role of trees in art. Next exhibition the beginning of knowledge, completely different,but interesting. The next exhibition: making the 250th anniversary of the artists birth. As expected excellent.

Super nice art gallery for free! It is not directly in the city center,but you can easily get there by bus. Highly recommend this place - the building itself(in architectural way) and beautiful garden with a lot of wild squirrel, nice exhibition and cute gallery shop🤩
