"I love the Art Gallery and have the Gallery a great place to visit with children and offers something a little different to enjoy with your children. The Gallery has several exhibits which are free for the public to enjoy. I love that the Gallery have tried to be really child friendly and for those with younger children, there is explorer tool belts for family groups with children aged three to six."

"Dynamic world class art gallery space, mostly free entry, features in Manchester from long-standing gallery icons like the Manchester Art Gallery and the Whitworth Art Gallery to lesser know art gems like The Lowry and Cornerhouse galleries. See contemporary Chinese art on display in the Chinese Arts Centre and catch more great contemporary art in hidden gem the Castlefield Gallery."

"The Northern sister to London’s Imperial War Museum, the Manchester venue is just as engrossing, and sobering as it’s southern equivalent. Built on the ruins of the docklands industrial area, which was bombed heavily itself during the Blitz. A stunning collection, ranging from World War memorabilia to sections of the World Trade Center wreckage can be found in one of the best collections to be found in any museums in Manchester."

"You may crave some culture next, and Manchester is more than able to accommodate. The John Rylands Library is an excellent choice with late 19th century gothic architecture to appreciate and fresh, new exhibits rotating through every couple of months. You will be captivated by the juxtaposition of old and new and enthralled by the art and imagination of the works inside."

"On Deansgate in Manchester is the John Rylands Library, a late-19th century Victorian building in a Gothic style. What’s so different about this library is that it looks a lot more like a cathedral than a place for housing books. It is considered by many as Manchester’s most beautiful building and houses some of the earliest books ever printed."

"Opened in 2001, the Millenium Gallery is one of the most impressive galleries in the north of England. Listed as the 15 most visited free attraction in England by Visit England, it’s situated right next to the Central Library, Graves Gallery and Hallam University. There is a constantly changing temporary exhibition space, but the permanent Ruskin Collection is the highlight of the gallery."

"The Whitworth relaunched in 2015 after a massive refurbishment and only went on to win an award for Museum of the Year by the Art Fund in its first year. They have a constantly changing display of collections and a wide spectrum of art in their temporary exhibitions. The Whitworth is located in South Manchester, I would recommend taking public transport as it’s quite a walk otherwise."

"From Wednesday May 19, the stunning Whitworth gallery will be partially reopen to the public, with a film screening of Imran Perretta: the destructors on display. The cafe will be back open too, but the full gallery will be up and running again by July 1, in time for its MIF21 summer exhibition. Plan your visit at whitworth.manchester.ac.uk/visit."

"The Whitworth will partially reopen from Wednesday 19 May 2021. The gallery is expected to reopen fully from Thursday 1 July 2021."

"The Sheffield Institute of Arts Gallery is a gallery for the people, made by the people. It showcases the very best work from the local community and visiting artists, giving a more intimate feel than any other exhibit on this list – which makes sense given that it’s connected to Sheffield Hallam University. But just because it mainly features new and upcoming artists doesn’t mean you won’t see great work; previous collaborators include David Mellow, Ken Garland, and George Grosz – all well-renowned in their field."

"Sheffield Institute of Arts Gallery is a university art gallery in Sheffield. Part of Sheffield Hallam University the gallery is based in the Furnival Building in Sheffield's Cultural Industries Quarter. It is open to the public."

"Waffles and pancakes are the way to go at Lucky Fox if you fancy something sweet, although they offer one of the best veggie dishes in the city in the form of the Hippie Banjo: thick-sliced sourdough toast, poached egg, avocado, watercress, and tomato."

"For some of the city's best American-inspired eats, Division Street's Lucky Fox is the place to check out. The fun Sheffield restaurant specialises in delicious fried chicken served however you like it - in a bun, on a waffle or dipped in hot sauce."
