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.

Interesting arch entry to art museum. Somewhat dramatic but the significance of this remains unknown to me.

My local hosts took me here for dinner one evening. There is an interesting display of art by local artists; it's one room, and will take less than an hour to see. They also have a gift shop, and some of the art if available for sale. There is also a restaurant on site and it is a picturesque location along a canal. The menu is ample and includes Thai and English names plus pictures. The food was tasty, though my pineapple rice was not served in a hollow pineapple as pictured.

My wife and I chanced upon the Art Bridge as we were driving back to Chiang Mai from Thailand. We were very impressed with the quality of the drawings in the gallery and this was by far one of the best places we had visited during our holiday in Thailand.
Based on what we have read in the gallery, we learnt that Art Bridge is a community funded initiative and many of the artists whose paintings were featured in the gallery were from the local community. By giving local artists a platform to feature their work to the world, Art Bridge provides them with an opportunity to express their thoughts and therefore participate in the shaping of the future. We are not sure if one could purchase the art pieces that were featured but we noticed that there were price tags on all of them. If indeed they are for sale, we feel that this would be one hidden place where art collectors could find some hidden gems while at the same time contribute to the development of the art scene in Thailand. Apart from the paintings, there is a nice cafe located beside the gallery too. We did not try the food but it would have been nice to have a meal there as the place is surrounded by nice scenery. If there is a chance, we would definitely be back again. We would highly recommend this place to anyone who is interested in visual arts and understanding the local people's thoughts though art pieces.

Art-bridge is a Fantastic project by local artists.
Exhibitions change from time to time.
Unfortunately we came at cleaning day but the big group of artists was having lunch and spontaniously invited us to have some great thai food with them. That's coooool!

ArtBridge offers you food for body and soul! A breathtaking exhibition of local art, which I actually went back to after lunch in their open restaurant, overlooking a big fishpond. The exhibition is very impressive and presents a lot of artists. The food is tasty and comes with a big smile. I will be back!

Having already eaten at a previous Tourist Attraction, I decided to have a quick look at the art gallery as it was on the way back to my hotel.
It’s a very small gallery with some really good paintings of nature and flowers etc. Not being big into art, I can’t really describe the pictures as an art lover will be able to.
Good for a quick half an hour stop-off.

Give that the building looks so big from the outside, I was surprised that there were only two poorly lit galleries. The lighting in the bottom floor gallery especially didn't serve the art. The art itself was bland- seemed like commercial art or home decor- mostly paintings of flowers and women's faces. Not the kind of art I find intriguing in my personal taste.
I saw everything there was to see in about 15 minutes.

This is a fabulous space with a lot of potential but it's completely wasted . On a positive note the food at the restaurant was outstanding but the gallery attached was a real let down and not worth a trip to on its own

A great date spot with interesting art and good Thai food. It's also fairly family friendly with highchairs (not common in restaurants here).
