This was Bristol’s first art gallery, built in 1858. The Bristol Society of Artists argued among themselves over its design. Should the style be Greek or Italian? The winner was this flamboyant Italianate façade by J.H.Hirst. The Academy has a large permanent fine art collection and also houses touring exhibitions, concentrating on contemporary arts. The New Gallery and Coffee Shop are open throughout the year with free admission.
