To find the Courtyard, you can enter from the Merrion Square side of the Gallery. There is a gentle incline from the gates to the building entrance (approx. 86 paces / 29 metres). When you enter, you will be directed towards the Information Desk (approx. 24 paces / 17 metres). Take a U-turn at the Information desk and carry on straight ahead, taking the second door on your right (approx. 28 paces / 20 metres). It is a large floor-to-ceiling glass and metal door, so please ask for assistance if you need it, and a member of staff will be there to assist. There are several different sensory factors in each space of the Gallery, including changing lighting, other visitors, banging doors and lifts. All Gallery spaces are wheelchair accessible.
