UIRS accessibility assessment
Description of the facility
The gallery is well accessible. Parking is provided as part of the public city arrangement. At the main entrance, there is a ramp, and stairs also lead to the entrance, which continue into the tiered arrangement, posing a hazard for visually impaired persons due to unmarked edges.
The doors are revolving. For wheelchair users, standard doors with a doorbell are installed to the right of them.
From the multi-story central hall, where the reception desk is located, it is possible to enter most of the rooms. Inside the hall, to the right behind the desk is the cloakroom, and to the left of the desk a small café by the fountain. Access to upper floors is possible via stairs or elevator.
On the first floor of the hall, there is an open event area with movable seats.
Adapted sanitary facilities are located in the basement, although there is limited maneuvering space.
Exhibition spaces are located to the left and right of the hall on all floors. There is plenty of maneuvering space. Selected painting by Luiza Pesjak is adapted for tactile perception. Audio guides are available.
On the right side of the hall, entry leads to spaces of the old building, where in addition to exhibition spaces, there are two halls. One is centrally located on the first floor, the other on the ground floor to the left of the old entrance. In the halls, the seats are movable, and portable hearing loops are available for use.
All persons with disabilities, their companions, and guide dogs are guaranteed free entry.
The gallery also offers fully adapted tours and creative workshops for persons with disabilities free of charge – for both groups and individuals.
