We only had very little time to spend in Limerick and I am so glad we found this gem of a museum close to the hotel we stayed (the Absolute). The collection is marvellous and fascinating, and the building itself is worth a visit. There is a nice gift shop with a range of interesting books and a very nice coffee shops with wonderful cakes! Don't miss it!!

Limerick City Gallery of Art

Reviewed By 2rokin

Love this gallery. There is a permanent collection on rotation plus excellently curated exhibitions. This is a wonderful place to experience national and international artists, with sculpture, video, photography, painting, mixed media and more. The space is bright and well considered, the location is excellent (just beside the People's Park) and they have a cafe. If you're in Limerick this is definitely worth a visit.
