If something here is not enough to decide on, write to mail@kolm.gallery and the answer will be a measurement, not a reassurance.
The building
A former printworks. The gallery is the whole of the ground floor: three rooms on one level, 290cm to the cornice, one hang line at 150cm.
Groups of eight or more, email a week ahead so the rooms are not crowded. Schools and colleges are free and can have a room to themselves before 11:00.
Photography without flash is fine. No tripods, no video.
