About Newcastle Art Gallery

Newcastle Art Gallery is on Facebook - but we're also here in the real world. Visit us at Laman Street Newcastle, Australia.

Newcastle Art Gallery Description

Newcastle Art Gallery has a major art collection - one of Australia's most substantial public collections outside the capital cities. It’s no surprise, since Newcastle’s reputation as a centre for arts and culture - once one of Australia’s best kept secrets - is now fast becoming a well known fact.

The Gallery hosts around 17 exhibitions annually. Exhibitions draw on the Gallery's collection, as well as public and private collections of national and international importance. We also run a full program of events including art workshops, guided tours, film screenings, lectures, seminars and more.

Drop by for a visit. We’re across from Civic Park, next to Newcastle Region Library, and only a few minutes walk from the Darby Street café and shopping precinct, and the harbour-side development at Honeysuckle.

Stops for various routes operate on King Street, Darby Street, and Hunter Street. Visit 131500.com. au for details.
