Ngununggula, meaning “belonging” in the traditional language of the Gundungurra First Nations people, is the first regional art gallery in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, officially opening in September 2021. Note opening delayed until 12 October due to COVID.
Our state-of-the-art facility is housed in a sustainably re-purposed Dairy structure located in Retford Park, the former residence of the late James Fairfax AC. Ngununggula offers rich encounters with artists and their ideas through an ambitious visual art and education program. From significant exhibitions, live events, artist-led workshops and talks, to school excursions and masterclasses, Ngununggula’s program aims to inspire curiosity, allowing visitors to have a deeper connection with artists, their practices and important matters of our time.
