The McManus art gallery in Dundee, Scotland, has reopened following a £12m refurbishment programme.

The main entrance to the attraction has been completely redeveloped, and inside the gallery spaces have been upgraded with interactive displays and visitor stations.

A new retail and café area has been added, complete with an outdoor terrace; a new top-lit atrium.

There is also a new creative learning suite, catering for outreach programmes as well as inhouse workshops and classes.

The works were funded in partnership by Dundee City Council, the Heritage Lottery Fund, the European Union, Historic Scotland, and The McManus Fundraising Appeal.

To celebrate the opening, a new exhibition – called The Making of Modern Dundee – has been opened. The gallery charts the rapidly-changing city from 1850 to the present day, including the skeleton of the famous Tay Whale.
