Fire Station: Artist in Residence

Qatar Museums converted the old civil defense building into a nine-month residency program with attached exhibition space, so what's on view changes with whoever's currently in the building. Best treated as a check-what's-on stop rather than a fixed-collection museum.

Opening hours

Gallery hours are generally Sat–Thu 9am–7pm and Fri 1:30–7pm; confirm the current exhibition before visiting

Free
