The RWA is the UK’s only regional Royal Academy of Art.

It was recently described by Sir Nicholas Serota (Chair of Arts Council England and former Tate Director) as one of the most beautiful galleries in the country.  Exhibitions of world-class art on loan from national and international galleries are shown alongside work by contemporary artists, creating a stimulating contrast between past and present.
