Manly Art Gallery, Sydney

 September 2013

The Manly Art Gallery & Museum displays art by local artists; and is also a small museum that archives the history of contact between the aborigines and the settlers.

Manly Art Gallery & Museum is housed in a single-storey building that faces the sea. It is at the far end of the West Esplanade road, and is accessible by both road or beach walk paths. Below are some of the displays for you to enjoy but as I have always mentioned it is always better to see these in person, so go there when you have the chance.
