A splendid Victorian building showing Canterbury's decorative arts and pictures.
Situated in the historic centre of Canterbury, the Beaney is home to state-of-the-art exhibition galleries, library, education facilities and a full programme of events. It was an Art Fund Museum of the Year finalist in 2013.
The building takes its name from its benefactor, Dr James George Beaney, who died in 1891 and left money in his will to the city of Canterbury.
