Manly Art Gallery has several exhibition spaces as well as a gift shop for arty presents that will please. Within walking distance of the ferry on West Esplanade. I viewed the recent Environment and landscape Art Prize. Suitable for all ages and interests.

Kate Dorrough’s Lineage exhibtion was refreshing and vibrant! Must see! The gallery is a beautiful space and has a few different areas with different exhibits.

Robust collection for such a small space. If you're stopping into Manly Wharf to make your way to the beach, grab a bite and check this place out before hiking beach side. The art is a mix of photography, paintings, charcoals, mixed media, and pottery. Best of all? It's free so it's no ding to your pocket even if you don't find the art to suit your liking.

The lady went above and beyond to make sure that we were able to see all art. She was very knowledgable about the pieces and we learnt so much from being there.

Provoking art in a beautiful location

A superb collection, great location

A magical place very close to the ferry pier.

Great cultural experience, free entry. Fantastic location, close to Manly aquarium and amenities.wheelchair access. All local northern beaches artists and their established artworks. Delightful for all who love to see individuality created with personality.would highly recommend.

Most enjoyable time. The exibits were very interesting we have very creative and artistic people in Australia. And its free. ?

The Northern Beaches Environmental & Art Prize Exhibition is currently being held. Well worth visiting and voting for People's Choice Award....

Love the Seeaweed Art exhibit at the moment

Understated venue pushing above it's weight. Wish I had more time to look through the exhibition while I was there

Always a fantastic collectio of top art. Eternally interesting and wonderful location. Staff are helpful and welcoming. As someone else mentioned, the ceramic collection is astonishing, but unfortunately totally uncurated and crowded in a back room. Well worth a regular visit. One of 3 associated galleries.

Surprisingly spacious.. great place for new exhibitions. 🤓

Not too big but interesting. Worth going to.

The Exhibition was a delightful experience seeing Australian Artist Luke Sciberras & and Euan Macleod lovely location 4 halls to view different Modalities Australia’s best . Views of malt shore line icon from inside We caught the fast Ferry from Circular Quay Most enjoyable day

Nice

It's convenient off the ferry along the beach away from the crowd. It's beautifully laid out. It's large and welcoming and it's free. The exhibition changes often .

Has good art display

Great variety of exhibitions. Easy access and great staff.

Great!

Beautifully sited gallery next to Manly's harbour beach with terrific collection and interesting changing exhibitions of painting, sculpture, ceramics and photographs. Small shop selling locally made art works. The view from the picture window is an art work if it's own. Not a bad cafe next door.

Worth a visit. Some interesting work on view, from painting to pottery and handcrafted jewelry. Very friendly and welcoming

It is a wonderful place for anyone who love art and history. The permanent exhibits quite good place to spend sometime if you are bored around manly beach. Clean, well maintained, air conditioned and spacious. It has ceramics from different parts of the world, including European, Asian and aboriginal works. Next to that, it’s very well organized. The entry is free, however you need to pay if you wish to visit an additional exposition. The outdoor ocean view is fantastic.

Very interesting, three boutique exhibitions with different themes. Enjoyed the historical exhibition about the ferry service the most

Love this place! Not big but great quality art. Their curators are very skilled. Kid friendly

Beautiful and thought provoking display on the theme of asylum seekers + refugees

Small but remarkable gallery, currently an amazing exhibition on immigration and from the catacombs of Paris. Permanent ceramic exhibition.

Great little gallery, with some awesome art. Displays rotate through, so something new to look at each time.

A small gallery with Australian Australian artists, old and new, being shown. Always great to go and have a look. Permanent collect of ceramics is stunning.

A nice small local Art Gallery & Museum, we had a great time there.

Put this on your to do list. Lovely local art Gallery. Not too crowded. Stroll at your leisure to evaluate the exhibition

A fabulous place with some stunning pieces of artwork. Staff made us very welcome. A lovely place to visit.

A beautiful little gallery at the end of Manly Beach (harbour side) not far from the ferry terminal. Gorgeous outlook. Free entry. Only real hassle is that there's no easy parking option for drop off or pick up.

Good little art museum supporting locals - only takes 30 minutes to look through and is free

Not bad to have a visit

Contemporary small free entry gallery

Interesting selection of artwork.

Best view of the harbour in Manly!

Great Art Gallery at Northern Beaches. One and only !

Nice local museum. Good way to spend some time enjoying art.

Interesting compact gallery of modern and older art and photos from around the Manly area.

All ways a interesting place with different Art exhibitions And your option to donate or purchase from there little shop ??

Lovely gallery full of inspiring art with topical subjects.

A great place to visit..

It would have been nice to have an invigilater.

If your over at Manly it's worth a visit, gallery display of local artists. Might be your cup of tea. It's not the round building to the left of the picture it's the smaller building to the right

A light filled exhibition space. Interesting Frank Hurley photographs & indigenous painting collection on display now. Well worth a visit. .

Good tourism venue and constantly changing displays make it a worthwhile place to check out. I'd love to see it expand!

Great local artists.

Not normally my thing. Gotta say, well worth a visit.

Good variety of exhibitions, 2 - 3 at a time, changeing every 6 weeks or so, often featuring local/s. Marvellous location!

A wonderful space and the current exhibition is fantastic. Love the ceramics collection and the people working there are great.

local by the harbour coastal feel. easy and breezy

Nice quiet place , get to injoy watching the fish swim around.

Not very big but admission is free. Definitely go if you have time.

The bread is nice

Airy gallery rooms next to harbour boardwalk.

Love and friendly gallery

A loverly quiet space to visit to see local exhibitions and artists work. The council really needs to resuscitate that whole area near the aquarium, what a shame it all sits derelict.

Great for small exhibitions.

A good gallery with an interesting exhibition.

Cool but gets a bit boring

Its small. Interesting if you are in the area.

Small but fun

Great

Very good free exhibitions!

Manly Dam exhibition on. Interesting collaboration between artist and water management.. ceramic collection interesting too. Booklet explaining the pieces. Staff friendly and knowledgeable.

Interesting exhibitions
