The Silpakorn University Art Gallery ( Thai หอ ศิลป์ มหาวิทยาลัย ศิลปากร ) is an art gallery in the Silpakorn University in Bangkok and is considered the most important art gallery of Thailand.

The gallery was established in 1979 and serves to spread contemporary art in Thailand. The gallery consists of two buildings of the former Wang Tha Phra (Palace at the Buddha Landing Bridge) , which were previously used by the royal family: the Great Hall ( ตำหนัก กลาง ) and the Pannarai Wing ( ตำหนัก พรรณราย ).

Exhibitions take place throughout the year and artists from western and eastern countries are also represented through connections to foreign organizations.
