Gallery tips for Siem Reap

A few things worth knowing before you work through Siem Reap's art galleries:

• Buy the catalogue at Tribe. Exhibition catalogues are the affordable art book. They sell out after the show closes.
• Check for late openings at Artwork Gallery. Some galleries open late one evening a week. After-work art is an underrated pleasure.
• Small galleries take risks. Artist-run spaces show the work the big institutions won't. Some of it's baffling; some of it's the future.
• Many galleries are free. Smaller and artist-run spaces often charge nothing. When in doubt, check the website rather than assuming.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Siem Reap — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new art gallery in Siem Reap can take a while to appear. The 5 above are only as current as the community map. A art gallery that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.

We don't review exhibitions — shows change too fast. What we list is the where: real galleries, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 5 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
