The gallery displays Australia, European, Aboriginal and Asian art. You can either spend your time getting lost as you meander through the rooms experiencing everything on offer, or take the educational route and pick up an audio tour or join one of the guided tours. You'll learn a lot about the gallery and its works, plus the best bit is that it is all free.

Feel free to take pictures while inside the art gallery. Video and flash photography are forbidden, but you can still take some snaps of the impressive works. Entry is free but you might want to bring along a few pennies for the gift shop.
