The Arts Centre is great if you are looking for a cultural experience. The admission was free and the works of art are inspiring. The Bermuda National Gallery is in the same building, but was not open when I was there. I hope to go back and see what they have to offer.

Stunning art was on display during my visit - I could not believe that this was free and open to the public. The architecture of the building itself is rather interesting too. Along with art admirers, the building bustles with the day to day activities of City Hall. Located in the heart of Hamilton, literally right next to the bus... More

In the town center, with the "National Gallery." Genuine, modest, and when we were there very innovative. Underfunded.

Enjoyed seeing the art work displayed; made a nice respite after doing a lot of walking. Near the bus station and close to restaurants and shops.

Its pwyc and takes only 1/2 hr to stroll through. Very modern art for sale and small exhibit. Don't drag your spouse who very vocally critiques all 'modern' art. He had the kids laughing hysterically the whole time. Honestly.

City Hall is an interesting place to visit, which is in the heart of the City of Hamilton. They have beautiful art shows, which are free to the public and is quite educational and beautiful to see inside the building. A must see to the visitors.

This is a well used and wonderful building housing much of Bermuda's history and offers many Art and local exhibitions. Be sure to take time to spend an hour hear.

The best part of this was that they had an area dedicated to the art works of children. Some of it was typical kids art work, but others showed that they had nision and a sense of color that was beyond normal. Not the most fabulous, but very interesting.
