The expanded Whitechapel Gallery is now open.

The Gallery has re-opened its doors after an ambitious expansion transforming its spaces and doubling its size. The century-old institution is the artists’ gallery for everyone. With beautiful new galleries, exhibitions, artist commissions, collection displays, historic archives, education resources, inspiring art courses and a new dining room, the newly expanded Gallery is open all year round, so there will always be something free to see.
