Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If you know your British WWII history, Beaverbrook will be familiar to you. He was the benefactor of this excellent museum. There is a good selection of Canadian art, all well presented in several comfortable galleries. There are lots of little gems throughout (a Churchill landscape for example). The museum is a NARM participant as well, so bring your card for free admission.

It was a pleasure to get back in the gallery after the renos. Maud Lewis, Joe Norris, Tom Thomson, Salvador Dali, Allan Syliboy, Chris Pratt, Andy Warhol, Andrew Steeves, and so many more to explore. Great little cafe to grab a sandwich and coffee after.

Their famous Picasso is on loan for a long time, and the rest doesn't warrant the cost of entry. Plan on 45 minutes if you insist on going.

A very good Canadian gallery, group of 7, Emily Carr, Alex Colville, etc. The other permanent displays are very good as well. The Dali is arresting . A lovely way to spend a couple of hours in Fredericton. The location is great as well. Across form the legislature and right on the main drag.

Really nice building with incredible artwork. The Dali exhibit is breathtaking. There was also a Toronto Raptors exhibit when we were there.
There are two levels. Thursday entrance is by donation and the other days it costs $10.

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. There is a wide variety of art styles and artists on display. There is something for everyone. Well worth visiting and taking your time to study the art on display. Lord Beaverbrook donated many pieces to the Gallery's collection which has enriched the gallery's permanent collection.. There is a cafeteria on the bottom floor. Mostly pastries along with a few salads and soups. Nice refreshment.

The Beaverbrook is without question one of the finest smaller galleries in Canada, a real gem!. The most recent addition to the gallery is quite stunning and truly enhances the gallery experience. And the coffee shop is very special.

Was in Fredericton, NB to attend the opening of the new wing of the gallery. It's a beautifully designed, light filled addition to the existing building, that includes a new cafe, Learning Center and Artist In Residence program. A unique collection of important British artists, that are at the heart of The Beaverbrook collection, as well as a growing and expanding collection of modern Canadian artists, make this a very worthwhile place to visit in Fredericton.

One if the jewels of Fredericton - and one of best galleries of its size on eastern seaboard for breadth and quality of permanent collection. Works hard to engage with temporary exhibits. A relaxing break for travelers.
Friendly informal staff.

You can take non-flash pictures.
