An Introverts Dream
The central city is known for its intensity, noise, light and colour… but it’s also full of quiet spaces where you can relax and reflect.
Discover the city’s contemplative side by exploring the stillness of our gallery spaces and peaceful riverside seating.
This experience invites you to spend an afternoon experiencing a diverse range of contemporary art before retiring to the Avon or West End to relax and reflect.
