Barber Institute of Fine Arts

Keep the Barber in mind for its European art collection and purpose-built university setting, checking its visitor status before making a separate journey to the gallery.

Why go

The Barber brings an art gallery and concert hall together on the University of Birmingham’s Edgbaston campus. Its collection includes Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painting, British art, sculpture and coins. That range gives it a distinct cultural identity within the university, rather than making it simply another campus building to pass on a walk.

Useful to know

  • Check the Barber’s official reopening information before planning an interior visit.
  • Treat any offsite Barber programme as a separate destination from the campus building.
