Description
Rise above the city and discover over three hundred years of European and British Art.
Take time out from the bustling city to relax on our comfy sofas or unwind in the café. Through Sheffield’s permanent collection and a changing programme of exhibitions, the Graves Art Gallery offers a break from the hectic pace of life and a place to think.
Expect to see lots of changes in the Graves over the coming months as we reconfigure the galleries and present new displays of our collections. Please bear with us whilst this work is undertaken.
Cross over the road to visit the Millennium Galleries or take a bus from the city centre to Bishops’ House.

Key artists and exhibits
Pablo Picasso ; Pierre Bonnard ; Sir Stanley Spencer ; Helen Chadwick
