A serious, free contemporary-art institution on the Jaddaf waterfront, with around ten galleries of rotating exhibitions by regional and international artists, desert gardens and an open-access art library. Come for thoughtful, well-curated shows without the mall-crowd energy, then linger in the sculpture park and cafe by the creek. Exhibitions rotate, so check what's on before making the trip out to Al Jaddaf.
