The Galleries occupy restored warehouse interiors that retain the historic dockside architecture and layout of the building. Cobbled walkways, exposed timber shopfronts and low, directional lighting create narrow, linear sightlines through reconstructed alleys and warehouse bays. The spaces contain interpretive displays and hands-on exhibit elements alongside original and replica artefacts. Wi-Fi and air conditioning are provided, with wheelchair-accessible routes throughout. Your own music is permitted when agreed with the venue. The galleries suit groups seeking guided or self-directed exploratory tours that move through a sequence of exhibits rather than a single static space, and present comprehensive exhibition content covering dock history in a way that remains family-friendly and accessible.
