The McManus is a free art gallery and museum with eight galleries spread across two floors in Dundee city centre. The collections cover art, history, archaeology and natural sciences. There's a Family Space on the first floor designed for families to explore the exhibitions together, and a café serving freshly made sandwiches and coffee. The building has full wheelchair access, lifts to all floors, an adapted toilet, and wheelchairs available for loan. A free digital guide lets you explore the permanent displays and hear from curators about temporary exhibitions.
