Lake Macquarie City Art Gallery is an exceptional cultural and tourist destination. Located on the
shores of beautiful Lake Macquarie, the gallery
precinct consists of an award winning
purpose-built gallery, sculpture park, mosaic
pathway, expansive leafy grounds, and historic
Awaba House Restaurant Cafe.
Lake Macquarie is unique amongst regional
galleries in Australian due to its location and
quality of programming. The gallery has received
many national, state, and regional awards in
tourism and Indigenous programming.
The gallery prides itself on hosting an exciting
and changing program of nationally significant
touring exhibitions alongside exhibitions featuring
the work of the Hunter’s finest artists.
The contemporary craft outlet features many
locally and nationally respected craftspeople.
An ideal place to buy handcrafted ceramics, glass, textiles, art journals, books, catalogues, greeting cards, artist packs, and novelty items.
The major focus of the collection, including the
works in the sculpture garden, reflect our unique location – Still Waters Clear Visions. We are also
the custodians of a number of works by well-known Australian artists, including Sir William Dobell.
The café in Awaba House is an idyllic place to take
in the view and enjoy lunch or a relaxing coffee. |
