Review:

Cairns Art Gallery is situated within a restored government building from 1936, in Cairns City, Queensland, Australia. This award-winning gallery opened for the first time in July of 1995 and boasts three floors of elegantly designed gallery spaces. Designed by government architect, R.C. Nowland, the building’s construction began in 1934 and was completed in 1936. The building retains much of its historic charm, including iron balustrades, stained glass windows, polished timber-wall paneling, and terrazzo floors. The gallery is equipped with a café and gift shop that features children’s toys, books, homewares, specialty items, and jewelry. Visitors will find rotating exhibits that include works ranging from ceramics to paintings to photography to cultural artifacts.
