The Novocastrian is Newcastle’s independent guide to art, galleries, and creative culture.

We list exhibitions and openings across the city, connecting audiences with artists and venues. Browse curated highlights, discover new spaces, and plan your next gallery crawl. Venue owners can submit shows directly, keeping information current and accessible. Whether you’re a regular or exploring for the first time, we make it easy to see what’s on and what’s coming.

Our purpose is simple: we believe in the strength of community. By bringing together all galleries and exhibitions into one accessible, up-to-date directory, we aim to increase visitor numbers- both by attracting new people to Newcastle and by encouraging cross-pollination between gallery audiences. We are committed to keeping this a free service for galleries and artists to list their exhibitions and workshops.

Feel free to email mail@thenovocastrian.com.au with any info, changes or suggestions.

Thank you to our community partners for their support.
