- Ira A40 contributionsCool shopNot much to see when I visit but try to visit the shop. They sell local product, worth to buy as souvenir. Price is ok, many choices. Try to grab coffee from coffee shop at the frontVisited August 2023Travelled with familyWritten 7 October 2023
- rasLa Trinidad, Philippines6 contributionsA quiet stopI enjoyed our visits here. The highlighted artwork when we were there were photos (?) with kind of motherhood-ish quotes so we actually didn’t pay them much attention (even though they took up the entire three floors of gallery space). Instead, we enjoyed browsing the shops. What I liked about the space is the vastness of it, and how it could hold different events while still having enough space for shops and stalls featuring diverse arts and crafts. As the space is created by an Artists’ Collective, it shows how good planning, cooperation and support can make such an enviable space. It is also very clean and has an overall vibe of restfulness which is much appreciated after the bustle of the neighboring malls.Visited December 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 28 December 2023
- weristvladBiysk, Russia17 contributionsGreat museum (and free!)Local art, there are several "mini-exhibitions" on each floor, different topics. Maybe not a lot, but enough, we visited all exhibitions in aroud 3 hours or so. I enjoyed the jewelry shops there (relatively cheap) - bought some handmade stuff.Visited March 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 26 March 2024
- Amy MFairfield, California8 contributionsFree art museum with cafes, shops, and library.This center was FREE. No admission charge. It's near MBK and Siam Discovery malls. It connects via pedestrian walkway on the upper floors or enter at the street level. It's air conditioned. Inside there were several floors of lovely and interesting artwork, photographs -- plus small cafes, library, and shops (e.g. guitar/guitar lessons). There was a gift shop at the top floor and a few vendors selling postcards, paintings, bags, jewelry, books, etc. near the escalators. This is a sort of place you want to check out if it's too hot outside (or rainy) and you don't want to go to another mall or be in a crowd. It was quiet with a few student visitors when we visited on a Saturday. We took our time visiting each floor and appreciated the art that was displayed.Visited June 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 14 June 2024
- Rasika10 contributionsAn art gallery that has a collection of many works.It is a source of art works and exhibitions, whether it be paintings or photographs. It is a peaceful area, not chaotic. Suitable for relaxation and a place to heal the mind. There is a restaurant and cafe. This place can be both a place for learning and traveling. There are many opportunities to hold exhibitions for students to come and learn. I highly recommend going because you will gain knowledge and relaxation.Visited June 2024Travelled with friendsWritten 11 July 2024
- loisnewyorkNew York City, New York59 contributionsWorth a Visit!A Centre that shows all types of art from paintings, photography to handmade jewelry. The layout of the Centre made it easy to view the galleries and getting there by the MRT was easy. In a couple hours it gave us an introduction to the types of contemporary art you can find in Thailand today. Our favorite gallery was the solo exhibition by Sea Ji Hui and our favorite work was Dream Island.Visited September 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 20 September 2024

After spending 5 days in Bangkok we decided to visit a museum which is BACC, located close by to all shopping centers this is easy to reach in walking distance.
Not only BACC installing the local painter exhibition they also have local artist open a pop up around the area.
Visiting local cultural centre is always a good break especially if you’re traveling more than 5 days in 1 city.

we saw a live band playing outside the building. We saw photographs made by university students.
I Especially enjoyed a solo exhibit by Thanathorn Suppakijjumnong. Art pieces were made by typewriter on paper. Very interesting and different. If only I could bring one of her works home...

Being a fan of art galleries and museums, I added Bangkok Arts and Culture centre to my itinerary and was so glad I visited. The architecture is amazing and the atmosphere was peaceful too. At different levels, there are cafes, small shops and galleries with artworks from different artists for you to view. Even for my friends who are not interested in galleries/museums, they were entertained and enjoyed the visit to this place as well. Would definitely recommend for those to visit if they come to Bangkok.

Interesting building with an interesting architecture. The center is currently featuring “Citizen Make Change” exhibition which will end on April 30, 2022. In addition there is a second exhibition “Urban Progress”. Both exhibition are both in Thai and English. Pretty interesting but what I liked the best was the young artist awards that had some really interesting pieces. I wish BACC would feature more of the young artist, a lot of talent. I also enjoyed the gallery of Prasart Chandrasupa. In addition to the galleries and exhibition there are few shops and cafes. If I was on a tight schedule in BKK, I would prioritize other museums and attractions vs this one.

Although it doesn't look much from the outside the interior architecture is stunning. There wasn't a great deal to see art wise on our visit but it offered a wonderful place of air-conditioned calm I the midst of the frantic pace of the city outside. Lots of places to have reasonably priced coffee and look at artisan stalls.

Bit like the Guggenheim museum, many local artists, good mix of art, artsy shops, small restaurants, cafes. Nice place to spend 1-2 hours, something different than temples and malls. Highlight was the Baan Silapin Noodle shop on the second floor! Lovely people, delicious noodles, good value.

Yes, I took photos inside, no problems ... but you may not be able to use the flash, most places like this don't allow a flash. But there's lots of natural light coming into the place.
