The Gallery hosts a diverse programme of events and exhibitions, ranging from national touring exhibitions of painting, photography, sculpture and crafts, to the display of work by local artists. Exhibitions in 2006 include Paula Rego's graphic art, John Goto's New World Circus photographs, British landscapes, women's artfrom the permanent collection and historic textiles from Temple Newsam House.
There is ramped access at the side door. The toilet is suitable for people with disabilities. One car parking space is reserved on Swan Road for visitors with disabilities.
