Free Wi-Fi is now available throughout the National Gallery – the first of a number of major steps that the Gallery is taking to provide a warmer welcome for visitors.

Director of Public Engagement, Dr Susan Foister, said: “We are proud to introduce Wi-Fi to the Gallery, heralding new plans to enhance the experience of our visitors and to engage a broader audience. We know that when people feel inspired they often like to share the moment, so along with the free Wi-Fi service we are now welcoming visitor photography: from now on people will be able to share their experience of the Gallery and its paintings with friends and family through social media.”
