Our Gallery History
Gallery 56, located in Gufool, is housed in a historic legacy building constructed by the late architect Mahmood Akbari in 1968. With strong ties to Bahraini culture and tradition, this gallery has undergone a restoration and transformation process led by Husam AlDhulaie in 2023, and it officially opened its doors on February 19, 2024.
Gallery 56 specializes in carefully selecting artworks by Bahraini artists, to showcase their creativity throughout this charming space.
