The Model. Home of The Niland Collection.
Art gallery
👍👍 Brilliant contemporary art gallery in Sligo, that's free to visit. It houses the Niland collection, which focuses on the artist Jack B Yeats. The gallery has art exhibitions, performing art events and talks throughout the year. There's cafe, cinema and a shop in the building.

Constance Markievicz House
