    Nice place, entrance is free. A great way for local artists to present and sell their pieces. The historic building itself is also very nicely renovated. Worth a visit.

  • 3/5 Keith F. 1 year ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Great exhibition. Employees need training. The gallery is small and I was the only person there at the end of the day. With 10 minutes left until closing time they started turning off the lights. I said something to the security guard flipping the switches and she just shrugged her shoulders like "Sorry, that's just the way it is." Poor customer service. 🙄

  • 2/5 Morino R. 3 years ago on Google
    All I see are cheap knockoffs regarding local souvenirs Etc, I personally wouldn't set foot in the store if my life depended on it hypothetically speaking.

  • 4/5 erik k. 6 years ago on Google
    If you are interested in Art in general, then this is the prime location to see artwork from Suriname's artists. Its a beautiful gallery with friendly staff. Open almost every day during daytime. The same owner has a craft shop around the corner with a wide selection of local quality craft-work from Amerindian and other tribal people from the interior. And including from artisans who live in the coastal area. you will find something for your self or to make a friend happy.

    (Translated by Google) Fantastic place in Paramaribo. Contemporary art gallery. Works of local eminent artists and foreign artists. A place to rest on each floor and a wonderful terrace in the attic. The place is air-conditioned which is also important in this hot climate. I even found a Polish context ... a work referring to the sins of the Church from JPII in the main role. (Original) Fantastyczne miejsce w Paramaribo. Galeria sztuki współczesnej. Prace lokalnych wybitnych artystów i twórców zagranicznych. Na każdym piętrze miejsce do odpoczynku a na poddaszu cudowny taras. Miejsce klimatyzowane co także ma znaczenie w tym gorącym klimacie. Znalazłam nawet polski kontekst... pracę nawiązującą do grzechów Kościoła z JPII w roli glownej.

No shortage of souvenirs and not unimportant, friendly and helpful staff. (Original) Zeer uitgebreid assortiment. Wij zochten naar een kotomisi voor een klein meisje en werden niet teleurgesteld.

    (Translated by Google) Four different levels each dedicated to one or two artists maximum. It's very airy, lots of space for each artist on display. And the ground floor on the street is left each month to a different artist. A beautiful art gallery. (Original) Quatre niveaux différents chacun dédié à un ou deux artistes maximum. C'est très aéré, beaucoup d'espace pour chaque artiste exposé. Et le rez de chaussée sur la rue est laissé chaque mois à un artiste différent. Une belle galerie d'art.

    (Translated by Google) You can come here for all your souvenirs! From magnets to pens, from t-shirts to earrings. In different sizes and colors. I thought it was a pity that there are no "Paramaribo" souvenirs. It seems logical to me that such a thing exists, but apparently not. And some souvenirs are on the pricey side. You will also find other things and clothing on the other side of the store. (Original) Hier kan je komen voor al je souvenirtjes! Van magneten tot pennen, van t-shirts tot oorbellen. In verschillende maten en kleuren. Ik vond het wel jammer dat er nergens "Paramaribo" souvenirs te vinden zijn. Het lijkt me vrij logisch dat zoiets bestaat, maar blijkbaar niet. En sommige souvenirs zijn wel aan de prijzige kant. Verder vindt je aan de andere kant van de winkel ook andere spulletjes en kleding.
