217 reviewsAbout
Bathurst Regional Art Gallery (BRAG) is one of the oldest regional galleries in NSW. It is a professionally staffed facility owned and operated by Bathurst Regional Council. BRAG is a cultural anchor for the city and region, and delivers unique and bold cultural experiences underpinned by excellence in programming and lifelong learning.
A combination of beautiful natural landscapes and the dynamic history of villages such as Hill End, Carcoar, Sofala and Millthorpe have created a unique attraction for visual artists in the Bathurst region since 1815. BRAG has forged strong links with surrounding townships and within the local community to create a vibrant space showcasing the full spectrum of artistic endeavour.
Built in 1989, it was the first purpose built regional gallery in NSW, and provides professional development opportunities for local and regional artists. The Gallery is a creator of award-winning exhibitions and programs. Located on historic Keppel Street, BRAG is a modern, well-equipped and highly celebrated regional gallery.
From 1955 the BRAG collection has grown to include almost 3,000 works in a wide variety of media and is valued at over $11.5 million. The collection features paintings, sculpture, works on paper, photographs, and ceramics by over four hundred Australian artists.

We had great fun making collages and drawings for the exhibition. All the displayed works — from oil on canvas to synthetic polymer pieces — were fantastic to see. The creativity and variety made the whole experience really enjoyable and inspiring.

A peek at the Linda Jackson exhibition at Bathurst Regional Art Gallery proved a riotous exploration of colour, landscape inspiration and textiles. The exhibition was well hung and curated to show the link between nature and landscape, the paintings, and the resulting textiles. Staff were warm, welcoming and friendly. Would happily return.

It was a great regional art gallery in Bathurst. It was my first to visit in 2019 and what they had in exhibit were such impressive tapestries. BRAG is definitely one of those places you must visit when you are in Bathurst to get to know more about the place and its rich art tradition. It is pretty accessible and entrance is free of charge.

I always love to visit this gallery. When we went they were cataloging the artworks, so there wasn't so much to see. What was on display was thought provoking. Entry by donation and the gift shop seemed well priced

It was a wonderful gallery with interesting and informative and thoughtful exhibitions. The staff were lovely and knowledgeable. We did an eye spy game which helped us see more of the details of the art! Thank you
