Barber Institute of Fine Arts

Date of visit: September 2017

I have experience of challenges around: moving around

Overall Rating

I have given this a 5 because whist its a bit of a challenge its all worthwhile. There are about 4/5 disabled parking places but disabled access is round the left of the building down a slope. You have to go through barriers to get there. Someone will come and help and take you into the gallery proper. The art collection is really of superb quality.

Disabled Access In and Around

Signage was good for access. Assistance is required for wheelchair users as the route is secure and the staff have to open up the different areas you pass through, and they control the lift to the gallery areas. But saying all that everything went well.

Didn't look out for this amenity.

Staff

The staff were really helpful and certainly it was a cheerful chatty experience going through all the corridors behind the scenes.

Additional Information

It was really good to see the range of art available. Really good. Interesting that there are free recitals on Friday lunchtimes and a host of other activities- well worth checking. It was also good to get the buzz of freshers week.
