Beautiful art galleries are located all over this country, hosting and promoting the works of Australia’s diverse exponents of art. Artist’s Palette magazine showcases a broad selection of these venues. In this Issue, we focus on the impressive Workshop Arts Centre and Ewart Gallery at Willoughby in suburban Sydney.
The Workshop Arts Centre is an independent not-for-profit art centre and workshop facility which was established in 1961 to promote and foster appreciation of the creative and visual arts.
The Ewart Gallery, housed within the Workshop Arts Centre, was named to honour the founder Joy Ewart. The gallery, officially opened in 1996 by artist John Coburn, is a space where the work of emerging and established artists is exhibited. Through this gallery the Centre aims to encourage and stimulate interest in different art disciplines by promoting the work of local artists, as well as artistic groups and organised bodies in the wider community.
The Workshop Arts Centre with its integral Ewart Gallery is located at 33 Laurel Street, Willoughby NSW 2068. Email admin@workshoparts.org.au – or telephone 02 9958 6540.
The space reveals a fine example of philanthropic gesture that has provided cultural and social capital to the local community. Joy Ewart together with fellow artists and supporters set out to create a special place for artists of all disciplines in the lower North Shore of Sydney … where basic factories and family dwellings formed the general landscape. From those humble beginnings a disused furrier’s warehouse has now become a thriving contemporary art space attracting students of all ages.
