    I'm a huge fan of taking my friends to SFG. It may be the best gallery in Sri Lanka. The staff is always friendly. I've seen some of my favourite works here especially by Sri Lankan artists like Firi Rahman and Muvindu Binoy.

    There is only one Gallary in Colombo that harnesses the local art talent and displays it in a surreal professional atmosphere such as this. We have had the pleasure of dealing with professional people who take pride in their job and has been consistent. Thank you for your continued support and look forward to working with you closely.

    The place is pretty good and the staff is average They won't shake hands with you , sorry they don't do it ! Just a fact I discovered when I visited the gallery . The gallery has a interesting setup but it depends on the artist who showcase their work . They have ample parking and ample to showcase the art .

    I have visited this gallery twice since I moved to the south of SriLanka last year, and on both occasions I have been utterly blown away! Wonderful group exhibitions by contemporary SriLankan artists! Amazing interdisciplinary work, thought provoking, beautifully curated and extremely friendly atmosphere! And FREE!!

    Good place for the people who love art and also they have more than 1000 of art pieces in their inventory other than the on going exhibition so better place to purchase Sri Lankan contemporary arts.

    Loved it! It was a new experience to dissect the art and I saw a few that really touched me. I would have liked a little handbook with the context of the art as I walked thru the gallery, because some pieces although spectacular, were a bit hard to understand - might be because I'm not very artistically literate. Overall a great vibe, and beautiful pieces of art. Oh and entry is free of charge!

    Was there recently and noticed that the local lady was very polite and professional. However, the white woman just made it her job description to ignore people of colour, as she was only greeting the fair-skinned customers. We've been visiting this place every time we visit SrLanka and noticed that Ms SaskiZ herself was very professional and polite. Must say this white lady is a deterrent to happy purchases.

    One of the Calm and nicest art gallery in Colombo. I visited there on a holiday with my loved one. The experience was surreal.

    I was shopping downstairs at PVR with my girlfriend and we thought we might go check the gallery out since we were there already. I asked the local guy at the entrance and he warmly welcomed me saying come right in sir. However, I was stopped by a weird white lady there (I didnt know if she was the owner or related) who told me "Oh I think its only for invitees today, you cannot go in". I left right away thinking damn, not gonna set foot in there again. I saw another review mentioning this lady so maybe the owner should ban her LOL

    Pioneering gallery within Colombo. Fantastic pieces of art. I purchased a work, great service. I had to request a rewrap of the work, no issues. Extremely helpful.
