"My NOW Gallery experience was great. The artworks on display were of works of artist, architects and designers from regions close to my place of origin.
The gallery is welcoming, allows for ample interaction with the works on display. There are regular exhibitions, so it's definitely a good place to visit when close to the 02.
I'll strongly recommend a visit."
