Mudgee Arts Precinct is Australia’s newest regional art gallery and is located in the heart of Mudgee at 90 Market Street.

Mudgee Arts Precinct is now open every day from 9am to 5pm. If you haven’t had an opportunity to visit this magical new space, you’re very welcome to come along and take a tour!

The opening exhibition is ’Stories from Homedale’ by Guido (Guy) Maestri – an exhibition created especially for the gallery’s launch. The exhibition explores Guido’s memories of growing up in Mudgee, his childhood home called ‘Homedale’ and the influence of the illustrations from the children’s book ‘The Bunyip of Berkley’s Creek’.

Here’s a video walk through of the exhibition
