Artspace Mackay
Discover the arts and culture of the Mackay region when you visit Artspace Mackay, the new regional art gallery and museum in the centre of the city.
This architecturally award winning building provides visitors with an opportunity to learn about the people and history of Mackay through the Spirit and Place: Mementoes of Mackay exhibition. The stories of Mackay's people, industries and culture are told through a unique multimedia and museum display which includes objects ranging from John Mackay's walking stick to Cathy Freeman's school trophies.
Celebrate the arts through an ever changing array of exhibitions drawn from local, interstate and international collections which showcase the talents of Australian artists. Discover the rare artists book collection on display in the Tate Adams Reading Room where you can discover this unusual artform (by appointment) or in regular displays and exhibitions.
Enjoy lunch or coffee at the new Foodspace Cafe which overlooks the green gardens of the Mackay Civic Centre Precinct. The char grill style menu offers something tasty for every budget and the best coffee in town.
Corporate or community groups looking for an unusual conference venue can book meetings, small seminars and functions at the Seminar Room (capacity 50 people) or after hours cocktail functions using the spacious foyer.
Group tours can be booked with well trained volunteer guides who will provide visitors with insights into the exhibitions on display and a range of gifts and merchandise can be bought at the information desk.
Artspace Mackay is part of the Queensland Heritage Trails Network of heritage and cultural attractions throughout the state and was opened by the Queensland and Commonwealth Ministers for the Arts in February 2003.
