The main modern art gallery is the Irish Museum of Modern Art. This is situated in Kilmainham, about one mile from the city centre. It is walkable from the city centre, but you can also get a bus from anywhere on the North Quays down as far as Heuston Station and walk the rest. Another modern art gallery is the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery of Modern Art, which is located on Parnell Square North, in the city centre.
