Easel Art Space

Easel Art Space is situated in Newcastle’s iconic industrial and social centre; Newcastle Station, built in 1858 and was operational as the Hub of Newcastle industrial and social enterprise until 2015.

The Art Space that has been created houses an attractive gallery space enveloped by the architecturally significant beauty of one of the oldest stations in Australia and indeed, the World.

Such a positive history with so many stories and connections
