The operator now lists the third floor of Sir H C Dinshaw Building, 16 Horniman Circle, Fort, Mumbai 400001. Older Colaba references can misdirect a visit. Keep the building name and floor with your arrival details instead of relying on the gallery's name alone.

Look at the current exhibition and its dates before travelling. The gallery's artist directory includes practitioners such as K G Subramanyan, Amshu Chukki, Naveen Kishore and Gagan Singh, but representation does not mean that every artist's work is displayed in every show. Let the active programme determine what you expect to see.

Give one artwork a minute before reading the interpretation. Notice how it occupies the room, what materials it uses and whether it asks you to move around it. Then compare those observations with the caption or exhibition text; a question is a useful response even when the meaning is not immediately clear.

Published opening is Tuesday–Saturday, 11 am–6 pm. Check exhibition changes, public holidays and any separate programme instructions with the gallery. If a talk or performance is advertised, confirm its conditions separately rather than assuming it follows the ordinary gallery timetable.

The third-floor location makes advance access enquiries worthwhile for anyone who needs a particular route or assistance. Do not infer a lift, seating arrangement or step-free entrance from an exterior photograph. Follow the building's visitor instructions and leave shared corridors clear when waiting with companions.

Ask before photographing, keep bags away from work and allow others space to pause. The surrounding Horniman Circle setting can frame a separate outdoor walk, but it does not extend gallery access beyond the published visit.
