Edgar Degas famously once said that "art is not what you see, but what you make others see." The relevance of this great quote will not be lost when you enjoy the collection at N.W. Barrett Gallery.
You'll have no end of sightseeing choices when staying in Downtown Portland. N.W. Barrett Gallery is a good place to begin here, but there are plenty of other interesting sights to appreciate. Portland Head Light, Portland Museum of Art, and University of Southern Maine are near the display of artworks and will round out your day nicely.
