STAGE Incorporated - Lysaght Watt Gallery - was established in 2005, our community-driven facility has provided space for art exhibitions, community projects, and education.

Exhibitions change frequently, we're proud to offer a space that showcases a diverse range of artwork inspiring participants and visitors alike. This includes pieces contributed by our own gallery members, local artists, invited artists, as well as national touring exhibitions.
